A free schematic can be found on nostalgiaair.org
http://www.nostalgiaair.org/Resources/266/M0013266.htm

The Service Bulletin #310 is available on the audiophool site:
http://www.audiophool.com/Philco.html

( the reader for the djVu file is here; https://www.cuminas.jp/en/downloads/download/?pid=1 )

A more readable set of schematics and info can be had for a few bucks from Chuck.

Hi ozo,
Welcome to the Phorum!

I think you're trying to post something...give it another try.

The remarks re: the youtube video of Philco's Factory Tour was my first post and had to go through moderation. I mentioned it because it is free but in the list of resources it was not. There are many videos on you tube but you have to look. Just plug in your model number and there may be videos of it including repair tutorials.

Here is an example of a youtube video of a huge Philco radio collection I liked.

Yea I am a new guy and glad to be here. I started out collecting vintage audio gear like receivers, amps, turntables, and tape decks but could not afford tube amps. Then I got my first tube radio and now have five. Three are Philcos; 48-482, 39-75, and a 46-421.

It is well done and I liked the earlier one too. I was watching the 2016 video for a while before I realized it was the same collection only on steroids. Icon_clap

Ha! It's changed even since the 2016 video...I thinned it out a bit. Down to 75 now.
