mute philco 19 or 89 or all between
#24

Hey Art
Nice pat on the back...I could heard a snicker in there and I thought I saw a negative shake of the head.......
Just kidding...LOL
I understand everyone is trying their best to pump life back into this beast.
I still have an inkling about that darned 2nd IF Transformer. It's strange that two contacts have continuity whilst the other two don't. Maybe just paranoid.
Another probably stupid question. Do all tubes have a P-K to test for voltage. I checked one of the other tubes on line and it seems to have it.
One more think before I call it a night......I saw an episode of American Restoration...They needed a rectifier tube for their radio. They went to a antiques mini mall to find one. They picked up a tube with five pins and said it will work as long as it had five pins......The last I knew You needed the type of tube for that particular radio.
Also they yanked a tube out of the back of another radio. Unless they got permission I would have been ticked of for cannibalizing another radio.
