Philco 41-608 Clarify neg lead on cap #21A
#2

Harlan, Hi. I believe that neg of 21Bgoes to the ctr tap HV secondary and between the 780 ohm and 268 on what is most likely a candohm multy tap resistor. The neg of 21A goes to junction between 28 ohm and 26 ohm on that same resistor and through a 4.7 Meg to grid of 7C6 (1st Audio. What has me puzzled, and I'm sure Ron will know, is 21 (8mfd)
has negative grounded. I say puzzled because most times when an electrolytic cap is designated 21, 21A, 21B, the three caps are in the same can and share a common ground, the can. Here, if the schematic is correct, the 21 cap would have to have an independant ground. RON
HELP PL

Is there a reference somewhere where you can punch in Philco part numbers and see what models those parts were used in?Jim Dutridge — 10:17 AM

Hi OSanders, Look carefully at the band switch. Turn it slowly and "wiggle" it around the desired band. ...MrFixr55 — 12:33 AM
