Philco 38-116 Audio Input?
#3

Yeah haven't got to the point of plugging her in yet, seems like there are some obvious broken wires to look after first, just was curious since I couldn't get a standard plug to fit in very well. I am just getting started and have heard that if it is plugged in wrong the chassis could be dangerous to touch and the audio in plug seems a bit loose so I was worried that it might be a problem if it touches the chassis. Is the 38-116 one of the types that the chassis could be hot? I was also looking at the power plug and it seems pretty old and flimsy ( the prongs wiggle back and forth quite a bit), just curious if I should also replace that and if so do most replace with a modern three prong and if so what do you do with the extra wire, just leave it?
