Canadian Philco Question
#1

Just picked up a new Philco at an estate sale.  They had it plugged in and working but not restored.   I wanted to order a full set of schematics including alignment instructions but it's a Canadian model.I've never run across a Canadian model before so I'm not sure if I can order an American model equivalent or if there are separate schematic sets for these.  It looks to be a 366.  I've included some pix.  Thanks for your help!

That would be the same as a model 66

I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!

Thanks! I would never have guessed that radio as a 66. I would have guessed 60, but I'm no expert and I appreciate your information!
This should keep me out of trouble for awhile.

Mark,
I like 66 much better as the 60 just has coverage on the old police band just above the bcb. The 66 sw covers like 5.5 to 16mc and there is no adjustment for alignment for the sw band. Mine was darn near dead on, I was surprised. Good player on both bcb and sw. Mine is in the modern cabinet.
