I’ll just have to take a Sunday afternoon and see what works.

After another look, the 42-395 appears to be the closest stringing diagram for the 42-355 and 42-390. There is a cleaner version of the 42-395 stringing diagram on p. 76 of the Philco 1942 RMS Year Book. There is also one in the Sams Dial Cord Stringing Guide DC1, but it is the same as the one in the 1942 Year Book, and not as clear.

After I have a chance to get my 42-355 into the shop and pull the chassis, we may have to amend the 1942 Year Book service info for the 42-355 and 42-390 to add a stringing diagram, or to point to the one for the 42-395, based upon what I find. Phorum members have come up with a number of additions and revisions to the Year Books.
