Welcome to the Phorum, Ken! The included schematic for your set is located in the Philco Library at the bottom of our Home page.
https://philcoradio.com/library/index.ph...year-book/
It has a detailed photograph of the Loop/Plug wiring of your set. Do you have the plug for the antenna? If so, you could make the harness out of 16, up to 20 Gauge insulated multi-strand copper wire. If you could add a photo of the back/loop as well to help determine next steps. Plenty of help is available here to get your radio back in action! Take care, - Gary
