Hello all,
I just aquired a Philco 40-165 and it needs a lot of work... so I'm starting on the easiest part - reconing the speaker... the problem is that I can't find any repair kit that would work, mostly because I am not sure what would work. Looking around the internet I was given part numbers like 36-4089, 36-1479, 36-4086, 36-4111, and 36-1480... but I just need to know what kind of voice coil and reconing kit I need! Oh the internet can be a vast, confusing thing...
thanks,
Ralphie

Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
