Philco 70 restoration attempt - singing now.
#31

I am in the middle of rebuilding the bakelite blocks in my 70. Do I read correctly that you are leaving them soldered in, and only cutting the small wires going the the cap, pushing out, then installing new caps with the block still in the radio? I have unsoldered the ones I have done so far, but I needed to check the resistors and replace the power cord.

Also, what do your resistors check coming off the # 34 block? In case my location numbers are off, this is the next block up from the filter caps, .01, and connects to the 47 tube. There are 2 resistors that are identical, 35 & 32 (Riders) and 33.

I also wondered what you were doing with 2 electrolytics in your filter cans? I understand they are series, one looks like an 8mf. Curious about that one.

If I could find the place called "Somewhere", I could find "Anything" Icon_confused
