Philco 37-116X What's The Price Point?
#16

He unbolted the tuning dial and took all the screws out of all 4 of the sub chassis. thing folded up like a rubics cube. Got to everything without unsoldering anything from the 4 sub chassis.


You can do that on some of the lesser models. But, I can see no way on the 37-116. Wires come in from 3 dirrections and even thought they are not rubber coated, they can be a little brittle, so best not to twist them any more than needed. Really it only took a few minuts to take it out and not much more to put it back. You just have to make sure that everything is back where it started.

Hi OSanders, Look carefully at the band switch. Turn it slowly and "wiggle" it around the desired band. ...MrFixr55 — 12:33 AM
