Ok guy's, here is where we sit with my Philco 300x console.
Seems that I might have a couple bad coils.
Will take it to my buddies for re-check.
Don't trust my readings.
I think the antenna coil for the broadcast band is open, and probably the broadcast band oscillator coil.
Can these be re-wound by someone on the forum?
I won't know for sure till next week.
This radio has been a pain in my rear end for sure.
Maybe $30 wasn't such a great deal.
Has shut my radio re-furb hobby down till I get this one figured out.
Then it's on to another problematic 40-180 chassis.
But, it is still fun doing this with the limited knowledge that I have.
Everyone have a great weekend!
