Philco 38-690 electronics restoration.
#1

Just to start the thread.

Tonight I put the tuner chassis on the bench.
It is missing the bottom cover. I know it should have one as 37-116 does and they are very similar.
I do have an extra 37-116 chassis and if it has the cover abd it fits, I'll use it.

The chassis is dusty but not rusty/dirty
The dial seems to be in good shape. All tube and shields are present; the test will show if I need any new tubes.
It seems the chassis is lighter than the 37-116; I wonder if it is due to the output stage being separate.

Photos later, Saturday.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
