O man now I've done it, Philco 37-116
#33

Update on the 37-116, all of the caps and resistors that needed replacing are done. I have many pictures which I will share to give everyone a better idea on how we handled certain situations. Seems like Photobucket has decided to mis-behave tonight. I'll try and post pictures later tonight or tomorrow. The RF section was not as difficult to do, some components were in tight places but we found ways to get around. The radio is working great without being aligned which is next on the agenda. We are taking the dial assembly apart to clean and lube it and then rebuild the the lamp sockets with Ron's great technique. More of this later.
