Radiola 60 performance.
#4

Hmm, I will need to find a print and see if everything on my 62 is set up correctly. One issue seems to be in the volume control. Sometimes I really have to fiddle with it to get the radio to come up and stay stable. I cleaned it and noticed what looks like a couple broken strands on the low volume end of the reostat. Not surprising to me in some ways because every 60 series I have seen either has repairs or needs the volume control repaired. I think the one on my Philco 87 is actually a bit heavier built than the Radiola design. Either way, I will probably keep this radio now. Need to reglue a leg that is wobbling and I finally got the hoop put back on the speaker. Though not sure what that actually supports.

No matter where you go, there you are.

Dan Double conversion is using two IF converters instead of one. This improves the image response. morzh — 07:15 PM
