Say, I have just found a 655 Philco that works, sort of. I don't think the shadowmeter bulb is correct.It has a #49 in it. Anyone know the proper bulb? Or have one if it is a wierd one? I read the Philco tech section about using a linear filament...
Also my model 60 that has given me fits, I think it is the lead dress or something.I think on the high band it self oscillates. Works o.k. at both ends of the dial, but nothing in the middle.Any Ideas??
Thanks,
Tom
