Roger, there are a couple of quick checks you can do. First look at your volume control, there three terminals together on the outer edge of the control. With the volume turned up, touch the center terminal (DO NOT TOUCH THE TWO TERMINALS ON THE BACK OF THE CONTROL, as the power cord is connected there), you should hear a loud hum. If you here a hum, that the output section and the power supply are working. Next, take a working radio and tune it to about 1460 and place it next to your Philco 60. Now, tune the 60 to about 1000 and rock the dial. you should here a slight squeal in the other radio. If so, then your oscillator is working.
