Philco 46-480 Electronic Restoration

Philco liked using those Bakelite block capacitors across the power line for years, probably because it could do double duty as a convenient terminal strip for the power cord. I have heard that the potting in them is tougher to get out then the 1930s blocks, but not too hard.

They did change the tar type, more than once, and yes, the later ones are a bit tougher. Also flooded grommets they used for some time did not help
 I am sure they were re-using old stock in the later radios. People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
