37-690 band 2 troubles
#5

Models 37-116, 37-675 and 37-690 all use the same RF subchassis; thus, they all use the same coils.

The coils can be rewound, but they are very finicky. If the wire size is not exactly the same, and if you do not dry out the coil form first before proceeding, the rewound coil will not work. Older Philco coils are much more forgiving.
