PHILCO 46-420 HIPPO - Gimmick on cap?
#5

Sometimes, a old radio condenser will be coupled with a old style bakelite resistor from end-to-end. Those, I pay attention too indeed. Otherwise, that old "extra wire" wrapped vintage condenser was most probably done for "shielding" purposes on a old style paper condenser. Glad to hear your restoration is successful!! Enjoy your vintage Radio!! Randal
