Starting another Philco
#1

I should have learned but like these radios, you might have seen the lovely 111 I had finished and the nice lady wanted back. Well had a space and this is what I'm starting on now. A Philco 90 single ended 47. It should take the place when the nice lady comes back to pick up the 111. I will be asking for some help, already ordered from Chuck the proper schematics and sent the 1st detector coil off to Ron. This one at least I could see some green on.
Hope you will help me on the restoration. Probably some questions on the cabinet forum and certainly a few on this. So far as I can see, both electrolytic caps have been replaced with well, things not right. I might have a donor chassis located with the right ones. Underneath, several parts hanging in the air. Appears a couple of block caps went South and were bypassed. More details to sort.
Well let's enjoy the journey.
Jerry
