Philco auto radio -how to get the speaker out?
#2

Hi Antipodal,

Sorry, I have not seen this radio, nor do I have the schematic, but if you thumb through the various Philco Auto Radio schematics (they usually start with a letter other than B), You may find something that looks like your tube layout. The schematic would likely be similar

This set likely is a "universal" type under dash set. It is quite compact and appears to be mid 1930s before the use of octal or Loctal tubes and before permeability tuning. It appears to be quite compact. It was likely a lower cost model despite the pushbuttons due to the lack of an RF amp.

As to the speaker, my guess is that if you remove the 4 screws that hold down the tuner to the chassis, you will find screws that hold the speaker to the chassis.
