First Radio Resto - Philco 60B
#20

   
   

I found a source for some (fairly) original 8mf cans to restuff.  All put back together and powered up and it's performing good, but not great.

Tunes in most AM channels that I can pickup with my modern AM radio.  There was a fairly bad 60Hz buzz in the background, adding a ground lead to the chassis helped remove about 75% of the buzz but it's still annoying.

My plan is to start working through the bakelite caps now.  I plan to do them one at a time and test function (worried about making a mistake that will be hard to trace...).

Is there a logical sequence to replace the bakelite caps?

I have (edited with values found) 
#7  3615-AJ  .05  .05  (Will use two .047uf 600V orange drops)
#27 8035-B  .00011 .00011 (Will use two 100pf 500V Silver Mica)
#30 3903-AP .01 (Will use .010uf 600V orange drop)
#33 8035-D .00011 .015 (will use 100pf 500V silver mica and .015uf 600V orange drop)
#49 3793-W .015 (will use .015uf 600V orange drop)

From Philcorepairbench I have found the parts list for all except 8035-B and 3793-W.  Is there a better list to discover whats inside these?

Also, are there other capacitors besides the bakelites that I should replace?

Thanks for the great info!

Matt
