Philco B Battery Eliminator : How's it work?
#5

Alan....Yes, I did fit the front panel on by relieving the exit for the contacts in the back. I still have to remove one of the coils and place the wire back on properly.
The other neutrodyne set I got from you (the parts in a box) is now sitting in a new cabinet. I have not wired it in...just put the parts in it for storage. When I get the energy I will build that radio into the new cabinet. The friend I bought the cabinet from tells me that it was a professional cabinet that was sold as a cabinet only. You supply the radio. From the looks of how it is constructed it had to be a professional job. It even has a homemade speaker horn inside. You can see photographs of the cabinet by just clicking on this link: http://flickr.com/photos/kb1awv/sets/72157605974175034/ . It is made entirely of quarter sawn oak and looks really great. Now I just have to assemble the neutrodyne inside it. Please take a look.

Hi OSanders, Look carefully at the band switch. Turn it slowly and "wiggle" it around the desired band. ...MrFixr55 — 12:33 AM
