Is there a place I can go on the
Phorum to find the values of a Philco
33-5240-1 dual potentiometer?

Thanks,
Oscar

And what set is it in??
When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!

Depending on the era of the set you might check the relevant parts catalog in the Philco Library:

https://philcoradio.com/library/index.php/parts/

There's also a searchable parts reference in the Philco Library - but it is currently limited to 1939 and earlier parts info and doesn't contain the part you listed.
