38-15 Project

Quote:Two nit-picky things, if I may:

- You do realize those are not the correct knobs, yes?

- Philco stopped using cloth-covered power cord during the 1937 season and switched to brown rubber.

Good job with the MP3 jack, it is not too noticeable. Is it one of those Radio Shack jacks that breaks the circuit from the second detector when a plug is inserted?

You nit-picky Ron? Never.. 8)

The knobs are from a 610 that I am working on they were on the bench so that's what I used. I do have set of the correct knobs.

Power cord - I ran out of the brown rubber cords, but I just happened to have a spool of the cloth covered so I figured it was the next best thing.

The MP3 jack is the radio shack piece that breaks the detector circuit. Works quite well, I also put one in my 71B.

Cleaned the chassis with navel jelly. The chassis wasn't the super dirty but it was pretty grungy a lot of that yellow oxide from the plating.

Thanks for the comments guys..
