Welcome to the Phorum, Bruce! I would recommend not powering it up again until necessary restoration is done to the chassis. Replace all paper and electrolytic capacitors. Then check resistors for drift and replace any out of spec. Inspect all wiring for cracking or missing insulation. Post some pictures of the chassis and cabinet, if you would. Lots of 'pholks' here to help you along the way. Take care and BE HEALTHY! Gary

Is there a reference somewhere where you can punch in Philco part numbers and see what models those parts were used in?Jim Dutridge — 10:17 AM

Hi OSanders, Look carefully at the band switch. Turn it slowly and "wiggle" it around the desired band. ...MrFixr55 — 12:33 AM
