Philco 60L Speaker
#4

I got an 89B that was missing two knobs and a wrecked cabinet from my buddy cheap today and the speaker looks like I can repair it enough to work for now. He said he knows of places that still re-cone speakers, so if the 60L has nothing major wrong, I'll have that speaker re-coned and put it back in later. I swear I looked at five 60Bs, three 89Bs, and two 89 consoles and I think I counted possibly three slightly different speakers in the 89s. The parts one I got has a slightly larger field coil than on my 60L, so I will meter it soon to be sure. Actually, I have enough parts to make the two 89 consoles completer now as well if I decide to get one.

No matter where you go, there you are.

Hi OSanders, Look carefully at the band switch. Turn it slowly and "wiggle" it around the desired band. ...MrFixr55 — 12:33 AM
