PHILCO 41-608 ADJUSTMENTS
#1

I have the BOL record changer which was restored and works good with a new photo cell. There is an adjustment screw to increase or decrease the intensity of the light beam, however, when I turn this screw (which is located neara the oscillator on the chassis), it does not make any difference at all to the light beam. I am certain I am adjusting the correct screw according to the Philco schematic. Does any one have any suggestions?

The reason for the desire to adjust is because when the volume is turned up too high, the sound becomes distored as a fluttering garbled volume. The same happens when the tone is turned too high to the bass. This is model 41-608.

Thank you.
