Philco 84
#33

Ok Take a 1/4"nut driver and screw in trimmer 13 till in is compressed. DO NOT over tighten and break off screw. Loosen it 3 turns. Set dial at 1000KC. Use a transistor radio. Hold it next to the mixer tube. Tune the transistor set till you hear a hum. To make sure you are hearing the mixer (local oscillator) move the transistor set away from the tube and the hum should diminish. Also if you change the dial setting on the Philco you should be able to follow the signal with the transistor set by retuning it. If you still can't here the signal set dial on the transistor set for 1500kc. The Philco at 1000kc adj trimmer 13 to see if you can find it.
