Mr. Fixr, Yes, he, Sam, is a weimeraner. My wife named him Sam, and after a few days I wanted to change his name to "Bad" as in "Bad Dog" haha. Really he has been great and is now 10 years old, has quail hunted in the past and is finally calming down. I am somewhat red- faced that part 2 on my parts list, Antenna Transformer 32-1062 may be fine even though I went to the trouble of removing it. I have reinstalled it accordingly after verifying pinouts. I then got my Eico signal generator and hooked the antenna directly to the antenna terminal on the Philco. I get a hum out of the speaker, but not when I just place the sig gens antenna wire close to the terminal. Direct contact is required. I also get a hum when I touch 2nd Det. 1st audio tube 75 and 44 1st IF. Tube 77 Osc 1st Det gives virtually no hum, but the RF 44 tube gives some noise. This set has no 36 tube by the way. I think that means it is a few iterations from the first model. It also has the police band too. Seems to me my issue may be somewhere from the antenna to the 44 IF tube. Again, sorry for the confusion on the antenna transformer.
