I recently purchased a Philco 40-180 cabinet style radio. The cabinet is in surprisingly good shape and the majority of the problems with the chassis was cleaning and lubing. The volume pot is bad, though. I cannot find a replacement for this ANYwhere (well, except Play Things of Past, and they require a $20 minimum). It is a 2 meg pot with a 1 meg tap. The shaft is ¼" D-shaft. Does anyone have or know where I can obtain this component?


Also, the wires on the large antenna form have been cut and replaced, so the color codes are long gone. The schematic shows the measurements for each coil, but the values are so low (.25 ohm and .1 ohm) that there is no way I am going to be able to ohm those out. Any other (easy) way to figure this out?

Oh, and a service manual would be really helpful!

Thanks...
