Philco 511 Restoration and Questions
#25

(10-08-2015, 10:11 PM)Radioroslyn Wrote:  Two ways to go. One the replace the transformer AES a has a suitable unit 1:3 ratio.  Or  connect .01 cap from pin 2 of the 27 to pin 3 of the 26 and a 250k to ground. Connect a  100k resistor from pin 2 of the 27 to B+
The transformer is a bit better way as it adds volt gain between the detector stage and 1st audio.

Terry,

I am thinking I will go with another transformer.  Is there one available, small enough to sit inside of the old clam shells for aesthetics?  I have never done this before.  What type of unit and ohms rating should I go for from AES?

Thanks for the help
