NOT 37-650! Philco 088 Signal Generator Question
#1

For a change, I do not have a 37-650 question! It seems to be happy, other than the occasional "Pop" and volume change...

So, my question centers around the Philco Model 088 All-Wave Signal Generator. I have just received the one I bought on e-bay, along with the matching multimeter- I don't have a number for it- and a beautiful wooden "Philco" box.

I am looking for copies of the schematics for each, I'd like to straighten them out, so I can use them. They are in basically good shape, but need a little TLC. Also, both are battery operated, I guess for convenience at the time. I would like to build a power supply for each, using a transformer, and 110VAC. I have the battery requirements for the 088, but not for the multimeter. Does anyone have copies of the manual for the meter? I'd be happy to e-mail a scanned copy of the 088 Instructions sheet to anyone interested.

So- there are the simple questions: Does anyone have the instructions for the Philco multimeter, and schematics for the meter and the 088 Signal generator? And any suggestions for said power supply concept?

I checked Nostalgia Air, but nothing was found there for them.

Thanks!
Scott
