Had a problem recently with my Philco 650. When I turned the set on, it would not play after warm-up until I moved the band switch to LW, then back to AM. Then it played fine.

Oscillator trouble, right?

Starting with the easiest thing to try, I pulled the 6A7 and put in another.

Problem solved. Icon_thumbup

Morzh, great job restuffing those caps. Icon_clap
