While poking around in the chassis of my Philco Pt-25, it occurred to me that it might be wise to remove the speaker for fear of damaging it during the recap process. There are four wires exiting the speaker assembly (coils and speaker). I snipped two of the heavier wires about in the middle making it easy to relocate where they reconnect when I am ready to reassemble. One of those wires goes to one of the tubes and the other one connects to some strange-looking device that I don't know what it is. But the other two narrow wires exit from a wrapped wire coil closer to the speaker and they are thinner wires. I seem to have snipped those off at the ends, maybe thinking that it was so obvious where they go that I would need no clues. Well, lo and behold, as I fiddled with practicing the replacement of the speaker, I could not remember where those other two wires are supposed to connect. Any clues would be appreciated.
