Ever surf through the Philco radio gallery?
Hi Ron,
Yes I have many times from top to bottom. Stupid me for not referring to the Gallery Icon_redface That would be the most likely
place to have gone. Working on my Monster 16B cathedral and replacing all the bakelite caps and resistors, love that tar. Icon_biggrin 7 out of 13 done.Wouldn't know what to do without the 2 page service bulletin #289 for the cross reference.
Already replaced the electrolytics and it is surely sounding better with every cap change.
