Hello I am new to this site. I just purchased a model 37-61 and I plan on doing a restoration. The cabinet is in great shape except for the front. The tubes all are in it and they are all Philco, the filaments are OK but I still have to test them on the tube checker. I took all the tubes out and tested the power transformer and it is reading a little over 600 volts AC and the heater voltage is around 7 volts. I will be putting in all new caps and resistors . I may be asking for some help when I get to those Philco block caps. I have been doing a lot of reading in the Phorum library and it is a wealth of info and help.. I will keep posted as I go along. Posteda few photos
Regards
Chip
