Update:
Today the receiver came to life and music came from the speaker!
Only had two small issues; overlooked soldering the speaker output wire and left off a resistor.
Needs a bit of alignment and back into the cabinet.
It was the encouragement by this Forum to do more than a cosmetic refurbishment.
So most happy I did, to hear the old Philco once again working.
The radio is destined to our small local museum.
Thanks to all.
