Philco 16B restoration
#3

OK, I have the Volume pot from Mark now.

Here's a question: as I said, the volume pot was wrong, and the circuit was a tad different from the original due to the fact that the repairman was trying to work around the pot that had no tap. The repair was done in 40w or possibly even 50s, as three 0.0033uF Black Beauty caps we used to stuff the tone control, and anothe BB plus Atom caps were used in the chassis.

Now, the chassis has the AVC pot, so I take it, it is likely code 121.

Am I to understand the schematic we have in the Library for the radio has the latest service updates, related to the volume/tone ctl, incorporated into it? It looks like it. But I want to make sure.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
