[BDM]

Oh, I forgot to mention...I think I set a new world's record for number of times removing and reinstalling an RF unit in a 1937 Philco while working on this 37-650. I removed and reinstalled the same RF unit...or a different RF unit...so many times that I literally lost count.

David Grimes should have been sentenced to a lifetime of being forced to service these things he invented. Philco's "Unit Construction" was definitely not designed with the repairman in mind...in my opinion.

I feel your pain. My 37-630T would not track correctly in the BCB. I mean it was WAY off while spot on at the other end of the band. Maybe you recall me asking you about that? Anyhow long story short, after I replaced various components including the tuner, caps, resistors (that really had nothing to do with it), no change. For the life of me I never figured that out. But once I installed the RF deck from my downer set, it tracks perfectly. My head spins just thinking of that weekend
