38-690, code 125 questions
#1

I just took out the reciever to get ready to reacpp it. There is a box on the reciever chassis on the right front side next to the tuning cpaacitor. Does anyone know what this is? It looks like a filter block that I have seen on the older Philcos, but I am not sure as it is not labeled on the documentation I have. I hope to get a better look tomorrow.

Also, for the tweeter wiring error, do you have to use non polarized caps? Can I use an electrolytic? Why use a 4.7 mf or 10 mf instead of the 2.2mf?

When changing the tweeter wiring, the schematic shows the tweeters physically close together. Of course they are on opposite sides of the case in the radio. Where do you actually make the connections for the white and green wires? Under the power chassis where the wiring from the tweeter leads to?

Thanks for your help,
Steve
