Philco 116PX is Home!
#1

Well here it is. This thing is huge! I did not expect it to be this big. It look real good, from what I can tell it looks like the original finish, if it was redone it was a long ago. Missing a couple of knobs but no problem, have them in my knob box. Record player looks to be missing a part or two (speed selector), will need to see what one actually looks like. The motor is loose on one side and the rubber mounts are dry rotted. I will have many questions when I tackle this.

I brought it up on the varic watching the voltages and amps, no shorts, slight hum, and dial bulbs light up. Someone long ago did update the e-caps under the chassis but left the originals on top. I will have many questions when I tackle this. It will have to wait for a while, weather is getting nice and I have several consoles and tabletops ready to be refinished and mated with their restored chassis.
Ron PM me with what pictures you want and how.
