philco model 29
#11

Ok guy's,
Replaced 2 of the electrolitics with the proper value caps,and it now works like new.
The previous owner did a really nice jobe when he re-capped it.
Removed the circuit boards and did it right. Replaced the resistors too.
Very nice clean job.
Of course once I replaced the tuning condensor grommets and installed the chassis back in the cabinet, the bulb burned out for the shadow meter.
Haven't looked at it yet, but I think I can replace it without removing the chassis.
THink I will put it on CL tonight for a couple hundo's and see if anyone bites.
It was re-laquered quite a few years ago and still looks real nice.
Will be bring home a Grunow 835 and another Coronado 2CM tomorrow.
Again, thanks for the input.
