1936 Model 600 Oscillaltor coil
#13

Well it's been playing great since the last time I had it one the bench(1 10 11). For 3 or 4 hours a day for 4 days till this morning it been wonedrful. I found myself awake and not able to get back a sleep at 4:30 this morning. So I went out to the living room and snapped on the little 600. It played fine for awhile but started back to it's old tricks. This time it just got very noisy. The detector stage held firm and stayed on the verge of oscillation as it should and there was a slight increase in the level of hum. Back to the bench it went and I took a look. As before everything looks and check out good I did run a couple of extra ground wires to the 77 socket and the wiper of the volume control also cleaned with a bit of Deoxit it was just a bit noisy. Getting to put it back in it's cabinet see if this time I can get more than 4 days out of her.

ps I don't think this radio like me!

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!

Would an output transformer if weak, cause the problems I am seeing with lower B+ voltage? murfmurf — 01:22 PM
