Philco 38-62 from the AHRS swap meet
#10

Well shucks. This is going to be interesting. I opened this thing up again, and I phound that both the blue and the red on the philter can have been disconnected. The blue was cut close to the can, and the red was capped off with old wax tape. If my brain is perceiving this correctly, I should be able to disconnect the Sprauge Atom, and the blue and the red each go to one side of where the Sprague is currently soldered on. If not, I'll have to hunt for the 1100 ohm phield coil.

Slave to an RCA Victor CTC-25
