Philco 42-345 Restoration/Repair
#54

Thank you Rod and Paul
I took a break, did some yard work and Rod "Therefore, it appears cap 40 is connected backwards with it's positive lead connected to ground." this is the first thing I will check. I apparently misunderstood just radios that polarity didn't matter with the new caps (Axial). I guess it doesn't matter with the paper caps. I take it that the black groved end is the positive side? If this is the case I'll need to check the others installed.
If you check my post #49 it shows the completed chassis with 2 new caps for #40 and hopefully #40A. Blue cap removed, I had it on a few yesterday and the day before. I am definitely starting with the polarity checks.
