Two questions: Service Notes and Tube Availability
#1

Hi All:

Progressing well with the 46-1213. A close friend tells me that Philco used to put out "service notes", or technical notes as we know the term today. Any idea where I could get the service notes promulgated for the 46-1213.

Second question is the FM1000 vacumn tube. New experience for me, never heard of it. Are they available anywhere? Source ID will be appreciated.

Related: you guys will be sorry you let me in; with all the pestering I am prone tol.

But thanks.

Chuck should have most if not all of the tech info you need. Go to his site Philco Repair Bench to ctc him.

Info includes the Model M-4 record chnager as well.

Thanks Chuck. I put my check in the mail today with a bit extra for the workbench. The dedication deserves it.

Thanks

The FM1000 is a unique heptode made by sylvania for philco. An all in one FM demodulator. There is no sub for it so I find it best to keep a few in stock. 8)
