Ah, the "sound",.. the "great feeling" of supplying new-life into a fine vintage Philco!!From the looks of the orig bias-resistor, dont be surprised if you get audio very soon!!Looks like the sets chassis is not badly-molested from the past too boot! Im not that lucky these days!(hee hee)!! I know you will do a great-job in bringing that set back to life!! Enjoy your vintage Philco!! Thanks for the photos!!
