Philco TPA-1
#70

This one has worse problems, I can see variable voltage on the motor leads but no turnny :-(  If I take the motor apart not sure where that will get me without trying, and then I'll want to pull the amp out and make it a display model- I mainly wanted the amp anyhow but it would have been nice to see it work.  Dad gave me an amp like this back in '56 with some other stuff to make some sort of an experimenter kit when I was 6.  I wasn't nice to it :-(  I loved the potted transformers and those little plug in transistors!
