Philco 87 Highboy
#2

Hi Skip
I did my 87 with 450v electrolytic and I've got a bad one in there now after 8 months of fairly heavy usage. Would go with 630v film jobs. I've got the angry 80 syndrome!!

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
