Philco model #20
#16

Hello MrFixr55 thanks so much for the input , what I am going to do is change every capacitor in this set and also every resistor , for the resistors I have ordered 2 watt for all of them except for the long wire wound resistor #6 and #7 that had the jumper across it I have ordered a 1K 10 watt like you told me , I did take off the jumper and tested the #6 and #7 tabs and I got 975 ohms , I have no idea why the jumper was put in , I was thinking that. Maybe when the set warms up that section opens with the heat expansion? , so I thought I would disconnect that section and install the new 1K 10 watt resistor , I have not and won’t power up the set until I change all the parts don’t want any undo problems , this is the first set I have seen or or worked on that has two output transformers , oh well hope both are ok again fellows thanks for the input and help all the very best Rick
