I would be very interested to know exactly how this loop is connected to the Philco. Unfortunately, OldRestorer didn't say. In the photos one really cannot see how it is hooked up, but I think I see 2 lighter colored wires there coming from it. I have seen too many of these odd things that actually WORKED over the years to pooh-pooh it before I know how it is connected; and, if it is logically connected, how it actually worked.
