Starting on Philco 111 More Questions & Pics
#34

TA, sorry but I was typing my response while you sent in your next. To clarify things a bit about the buss wires on the big can. I do believe (with all respect) that you may be in error on the two buses going to pin 11. According to my schematic, pin 11 goes to ground and has 5 of the caps going to it. The other bus goes to pin 3 (connected under the box to 5) and picks up more caps. This bus goes to the center tap of the transformer.
I will check to see if all is well. The cap block diagram on the schematic shows pretty much what I did.
As for the caps, well Chuck indicated "poly" worked best. Therefore I used Solen Fast caps. Non polarized 2.3 mfd. I can certainly change them to polarized if you feel that would be necessary. I'm really a "dim bulb" on this stuff.
Appreciate you help. Jerry

PS: Failed to respond to a couple of your points. I did check coils for resistance, not having a value to go for but all looked reasonable. Wiggled the tubes around and even did some swapping, to no avail.
