Restoration
#1

So where could one get simplified information about the function of each device in my model 70? As I prepare for the restoration, I'd sure like to have a better idea of what each part specifically does in the circuit. I was contemplating even painting the chassis, which would require a total stripping (gulp) I figure if I can't get it back together, I'll put a clock radio in behind the grill! Nah. I just would like to go through and restore the 70 and have a better understanding of how it works, then focus my attention on the other philco I have (model not known) so I can hear short wave! If anyone could steer me into some very simplified detail of the model 70 chassis though, I'd really appreciate it. Of course I will be consulting all of you too, along the way, for your input.
