What voltages were the original electrolytics on Philco's 1928-1933

Quote:Hi All;
Jon, is that B1 or D1 (I can't tell from the picture) Telephone, in working order or is it just for Display with the other Radios ?? It looks nice, I have a D1 with a later Handset, that I use on a daily Basis..
THANK YOU Marty


Marty that is a working Western Electric D1 with a matching handset. I also have a 302 and a real old 40AL candlestick with ringer. I use all three, in fact I just called my Aunt from Wyoming on the D1 a hour ago, Western electric made amazing phones and the sound quality is second to non in my opinion.

Morzh, thanks for your reply that answers my questions, I went with 600v ratings for the electrolytics on a Philco 80 Jr. I will be restoring soon after I can finalize this 71B that has been giving me so much trouble lately.

Thanks

Jon
