Philco 39-45 restoration: speaker wiring question and more
#1

Hello - My brother gave me a Philco 39-45 console radio a neighbor was carting off to throw in his condo complex dumpster..... a last minute save! I have experience restoring a 1943 Coronado console radio from a few years ago so I'm hopeful things will go well.
Before I even got the chance to take the chassis out to examine the electronics, I noticed the speaker and socket had cut wires hanging off them. Also didn't notice the field coil piggybacked on the speaker frame. I did a bit of research and read the field coil is attached to bottom of chassis? Well, my main concern is to find if the cut/loose wires are normal for this configuration before going any further.
Attached is a photo, I hope someone can check it out and tell me what's up.
I'm also going to report back to this thread if I have any concerns when I get the chassis out.... thanks, and please stay "tuned".
