Philco model #20
#23

Thanks for the help , I will solder the condensers in the cap of the can tonight , what I did was take the rectangle can out of the radio and separated the bottom of the can cut the wires and dug out as much of the tar that I could ,now I will solder in the capacitors on the under side of the can lid , I now have room with the tar removed to put the can back together with the capacitors soldered to the underside of the can lid , so it looks oringinal ,thanks again for all the help and taking time to answer my questions I really appreciate it, take care and thanks again , I will let you fellows know how I make out trying to bring this old set back to life , all the very best Rick
