Philco restoration continues.... This week I repaired the speaker and replaced the output transformer... I suggest you watch the video. English subtitles
"Philco 16X Restoration, Part Two. Speaker and Output Transformer Repair
Video about speaker restoration and the method of determining the technical characteristics, calculation and selection of the output transformer for the wonderful antique American radio console Philco 16X from 1934"
