Help! Philco knowledge required.
#5

Hi e.r.man -

As the others state, this is likely an export model or even a model made over there.

If you are good with schematics there are some US models with schematics available that incorporate some of the same tubes and probably some similar circuitry. Maybe you can hash these together and find your wiring problems?

Models 34 and 34-A
Models 38, 38-A
Model 39, 39-A
and lastly the 623

You can find these schematics at http://www.nostalgiaair.org

Also, in case you're not aware, there is a very good old radio forum in the UK operated by Paul Stenning. Odds are better than someone there could help you more than us Yanks on this model.

Good luck with it.

-Bill
