well,.... after some minor head-scratchin, realizing there was no way a Philco turntable could ever take-out the 7R7 tube anyhow,( I really didnt want to have to remove that chassis again!!, not again!!),... I broke down and pulled the chassis out again. I found the 7R7 tube socket had a internal broken tube-pin contact inside the socket wafer. Just wiggling the tube, found the prob with my continuity tester. I replaced the socket, alls good now! Just tryin to start some good-conversation here at the B&G, in the 1st place! Where is everybody these days? I see lots of "lurkers" here, but not many Philco techs that can "splain" why a Philco turntable can blow a 7R7 tube? I was Just-Kiddin!!
You see, when you get to be my age, there needs to be a " Pfilco Pfamily oversight committee" here, to deal with such ol-farts tech questions like these!?? Reckon? Perhaps not. Just checkin.
