Sables2, yes, I think all the Philcos of that age with the fine wire wound over the other coils with some type of clear tape to separate, have that problem. Don't know what was in that tape but it just eventually ate up the wire. Had two that had to be rewound. Mine was a Philco 19. Always wanted a nice cathedral. Don't think I will try another early Philco although I am a Philco fan.
