Philco model #20
#12

Hello fellows thanks again for the help , I will order the parts tomorrow, I will be changing all caps and resistors except the long wire wound resistor just the last section ,will use a 10 watt 1k resistor for that , thanks MrFixr55 for the input , I will use the hint you sent the one morzh posted on changing the block caps without removing all the wires and doing it on the bench , looks so much faster and easier to take the cap out well still in the set , will let you know how I make out , I will be taking my time seems I can’t stand at the bench too long now my back gets too sore , again thanks all the very best Rick
