Model 90 tone control help # 03137
#10

Terry-
Thanks! Another wealth of knowledge!!!
Once I get ready to power up, I might try a couple different, lower values and see how it sounds. The Tone Control was the last thin to do. So it's easy to accomplish before I bury them inside the metal cup. This Model 90 Chassis is in a Lowboy Floor Cabinet. I also have a Cathedral waiting in the wings, same model. So I will see if these variations are the same in that one.

You wouldn't happen to have a junker Philco 60/60B chassis that has a 2nd IF transformer you would be willing to part with? The one coil is open and it's not near the outside, it's buried near the core. This isn't something I want to tackle rewinding. Or a source for one?

Thanks for the good information!

Thanks
John N3MUN
