model 40A code 121
#4

Daniels Dad, you are in Canada, correct? Your 40A is nothing like the USA model 40, the schematic of which you found at the link you posted. BTW, whoever runs that website took that schematic - as well as other Philco schematics - from this website.

https://philcoradio.com/library/index.ph...chematics/

The USA model 40 is from 1929, and was made to operate on 110 volts DC only.

The Canadian 40A is from 1941 and does not have a USA equivalent. Six tubes, equivalent to the table models 33 and 37 (Canadian).

You will need to acquire the schematic for Canadian Philco models 33, 37 and 40. You should be able to order this from Just Radios in Canada. The cost is $7.00 plus GST, HST, EST, CST, EDT, GMT, LS/MFT, and whatever other tax you good folks have to add on.
