Hi everyone!
Since I have two Philco's I thought it would be good to join your phorum. My first one, and the one that got me hooked on old radios, is a 40-170cs that originally was at my grandfather's farm. The farm was sold about a year and a half ago and my brother asked me if there was anything I wanted. The chairside was out in one of the sheds so I brought it home.

My other Philco is a 53-958 am/fm set with twin dials. I actually have two of them (in case I botch something up Icon_redface

)

Great site here with much valualble information and I hope to be able to improve my skills in repairing these neat radios from yesteryear. I especially like Syl's capacitor rebuilding thread and I intend to try that asap.
