Another project - Philco Tropic 42-788
#6

Icon_lolno

Believe it or not, the parts arrived today! Icon_eek So for now, it's back to the Brand Z 9-S-262. Once that is done, I'll resume working on the 42-788.

Today before the parts arrived, I spent my time doing preliminary work noting where the various wires of the three IF transformers are connected under the chassis, and the two wiring harnesses of the many pilot lamps. That alone took all morning to notate. Some of the wires going to the band switch for the various pilot lamps may get resleeved with heat shrink tubing instead of being replaced with new wires, as some of those connections will be extremely difficult or perhaps even impossible to reach with a soldering iron.
