I really want to understand old radios.

What I especially like about this site is the people that contribute to it. Here you have a valuable resource for radio questions.

I'm definitely NOT an expert on wimmen, as two divorces and numerous failed relationships will attest. In fact, I don't even call my ex-wives by their name any more, I just call 'em both "plaintiff."

So wimmen questions are best left for others.

I discovered that the volume control I need was used in several Philco sets, including the 20, 46, and 70. I also discovered that the 1st IF transformer was open, so now I am searching for one of these too....
Hey Tom
I can probably help you out with the volume control from a mdl 20.

No worries, TA, I don't know enough to ask hard questions. I made a discovery of my own. This Philco 60 has a break in the phenolic wafer of the Band Selector. It is now in two pieces on my bench. It's been suggested I use super glue. Finding a replacement probably won't be easy.
If I can't fix it maybe I can just by-pass it to the AM band. I don't think there really is a police band left.

I may not be very good, but I'm slow.
