Philco Tropic 39-770EZ
#39

Okay!

Today's progress, on the schematic:

and looking under the chassis:

It may not look like much was done today, but I replaced all of the wires running from the volume and tone controls to their respective points under the chassis. (I have not yet replaced the wires which run to the power switch.)

In addition, I lengthened the wires of the audio output transformer, as needed, and installed it.

Oh, and I also rebuilt the dial lamp socket which is used on the left side of the dial, and installed a new wire for that socket.

I think from here, I will next move to the other side of the chassis and address a long terminal board which has several resistors and one capacitor. I am going to save the RF and det-osc tubes for last, as well as checking the coils.
