Philco 53C questions
#33

Kirk

1. What you need to do has to be done NOT IN YOUR GARAGE, or on the gound floor or near grounded anything. No it is not a true hot chassis but still no galvanic isolation.

2. Hook a good antenna.
3. Try to SLOOOWLY rotate the tuning cap and see if there is any reception at all.
