Philco 19 Restoration (from yet ANOTHER Newbie
#17

Hi,

You mentioned the grid cap came off one of your tubes. It can be repaired and it's not too hard. Here is a video by Joernone: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O25SxqWmyfw He does an excellent job of radio restoration for beginners and his videos are well worth following. He is currently working on a 1935 Atwater Kent.

Good luck with your Philco. As you're finding out, there's lots of great advice and information at the Philco phorum.

Tom
