116X bakelite block question
#10

Bob and Morzh,

Thanks so much for your help.

So, what you're saying is that the bakelite blocks # 82 and 102 are correctly wired in my radio, and # 82 on my parts list really should be chassis grounded and called a DG. The DU designation on my parts list, calling it ungrounded, is incorrect.

Morzh - The pictures on post 6 are really the pictures from post 5. I went back to edit and and add some information and made things even more confusing. Sorry.

Bob - I have seen Philco service bulletin # 289 and it was very helpful. The thing that really confused me was the parts list calling # 82 a DU, when in fact, it's a DG. To further complicate matters, that actual block had been replaced and 6287-DG was scratched on the side. The grounded/ungrounded letter didn't match according to the parts list, causing much confusion on my part.

Like I say, I'm still learning and I have a long way to go. I'm currently following along on You Tube with Joernone doing a 37-2670 restoration. I have a 37-670, which is almost identical, so I'm able to follow along and duplicate what he's doing. I'm learning a lot.

Thanks again for all your help.

Tom
