Philco 48-482 Alignment
#5

Thanks for the reply RodB...

I've enjoyed working on this Philco and I found that replacing the caps weren't as hard as some had mentioned in postings....    This is no Marantz Stereo, but it was probably quite a nice receiver back in the day...

Couldn't find the clear "slip over" caps that went over all the brown pushbuttons, but the P-touch label maker did a nice job...

Went antiquing the other day with the wife and found 3 tube radios...not worth the time though...I guess I'd like the next radio to be more aesthetically appealing, as well as a fun restore...


Thanks for the help from the forum members!
Mike
