My first post and of course i have questions. I have reworked a few radios over the years, used to love it, got to working everyday and such, lost track, but now i have time, and I have my 12x24 shop cleaned up and my stuff setup so I can work on radio's again. And schematics seem to be a problem, well i bought a flash drive on ebay, a couple cd's on ebay, and still can't find a schematic in all that for this particular Philco I felt sorry for at a local hamfest yesterday for 15 bucks.He was asking 25 . it is a 39-85 code 121, No B after the 85, I didn't need it, i have a boo coo of radios but since it is battery,that is what i prefer, i am ,please forgive me, a bigger fan of RCA farm radios but have numerous Philcos and enjoy them to. This 1 drew my attention because of the low price. BUT I didn't realize the push button tuning was unhooked, no "obvious" battery connections, speaker unhooked, in other words, A mess.
So if you could find it in your hearts to help me figure this 1 out I would appreciate it.
Part of why I was retired years ago is because of a brain injury so if you can, bear with my grammar and seemingly simple questions.
