Philco 34
#19

Hi All;
Ron, Thank You for all Your Knowledge and information.. Yes, that would make sense to me that the Cap was replaced about when the Transformer was replaced..
Since everything else in it looks period correct and as though it hadn't been touched since, repair wise..
The only Exception to that is the Power Cables, which have a modern Gray plastic covered multi - wire cable..
It also, looks like some one took some sand Paper to it to get rid some of the rust on the cans and on some of the chassis.. But, that can all be taken care of with Naval Jelly and Rustoleum primer and Paint..
I have started to take out each Coil and copy down it diameter and number of turns.. So far of the two I have done, one will be a measurement only as its wound like an RF Choke on the inside of the other coil, and I dare not try and remove it nor count its turns as its wound cross-wise for each turn.. The outside coil I can count..
And the IF coils have that leaking wax syndrom, so it should prove interesting getting them out..
And the Screws for the variable capacitor are soldered in to ground and in place.. I also tried all of the Tubes with two weak "D" batteries, all but the bad tube lite up, a 19..
THANK YOU Marty
