Haven't done much on the Philco lately. I did get new tubes. I've replaced all but the 6V6 output tubes with NOS tubes and no real change. I do get a little stronger signal with the new tubes on AM, but still no FM or SW. I tried a 2 conductor long wire antenna with both wires tied together and connected to terminal 1 of the antenna strip, and nothing. I might put this aside for a while and work on one of the other projects I have going.
One positive note though...I got my 3D printer and printed up a replacement for the missing bushing for mounting the pushbutton assembly:
The dimensions were a little off on this one so I had to adjust and print another one.
