Dragging out an old nemisis-Philco 66 cathedral-SUCCESS
#30

C17, C19, C22, C24, and C13 have been messed with pretty severely. When I got the set, they were screwed down tight, so I backed them all off just a bit, but I'll be having to find the IF from scratch. Start with the grid cap of the 75 and the first two trimmers, then move to the grid cap of the 6A7 and the other two trimmers, and finally try to find 600KC with C13? Assuming the 6A7 is oscillating at some point. I can move my Philco 42-340 into the workroom and see if I can hear oscillation, first. Any advice here is appreciated.

I tried accessing the site through our library and got the same response. It's reported to our tech gurus. GaryGarySP — 11:50 AM

I'm not sure why that wire wasn't covered in the video. I'm pretty sure the 6A8 won't work until that pin is grounded. Y...RodB — 09:47 PM

Those are details better left to the ones who know. Maybe you disconnected the wrong end of the wire.RodB — 06:22 PM
