Model 50A rebuild
#29

Well I'm thinking your field coil is open. Should measure 1140 ohms or there abouts. The specs on the spkr are 7.5K to 1 ohm opt fc 1.4K @ 65ma. Philco model P,P2,and P16 should be good replacements.

 You may be able to find the break in the coil if it's near the outside part of the winding. Or rewind it but may require pressing the pole out of the frame to remove the coil. If it has a nut on the back that holds the pole in place. Removing it and the pole will make it possible to remove the fc after removing the voice coil.

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
