Any way to bypass a missing shadow Meter on a philco 37-360?
It is the later version meter.

TKS!

The coil is about 800-1000 ohms. The value isn't very critical.

It's a code 125.It looks like the radio should work without the meter in place.
I am correct??
TKS!!

I didn't see a resistor across the meter in the diagram. You can check the screen grid voltage on the IF amp and the mixer. If it's very low you need the resistor.

I put a jumper across where the meter leads are and the radio came up.
thanks to everyone for all your help!!
