Philco 37-650 Re-Re-Re Work
#3

I hope you did not spray the same cleaner on switches and volume pot.

The volume pot cleaner has no effect on contacts, and contact cleaners destroy the pots.


Check alignment. What you describe with squealing during tuning looks like there might be issues.

And, depending on how much the radio was used, there are tubes that weaken over time.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
