Thanks for the info everybody!

The wasn't fully aware of the nature of the block capacitors, but the info that was posted is very useful. I'll probably be checking/replacing bad parts in those, too.

All of the above advice and tips give me a good starting point to start troubleshooting this radio. For now, it's only a matter of time until I get it working again, but I'm confident that with my own determination (and your help) another Philco 19 will someday be reproducing the sound being carried over the airwaves.

Thanks!
Jeff
