37-116 questions
08-23-2020, 12:48 AM
Is there a service bulletin noting the circuit differences between the model that uses the 6A5G vs the 6B4. Is that model distinguish by a code number other than 121 or 122?

Terry,
It says the changes are in Philco 8-3. I haven't seen anything there specifically about 37-116. People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.

I know we had discussed it a little ways back when you got
your set. Looked up the pin out and kinda interesting as the cathode is internally connected filament at it's mid point. I would have thought that it would have a separate pin with no relation to the filament. Does your set have have a filament balancing or hum adjusting pot?

Terry,
Don't want to misinform you, I do not remember. There might have been no trimpots in mine. Mine is 6A5 version. Now that I think about it, probably there were no trimpots. the two spare chassis' I have are 6B4 types. Probably same as yours.

here. https://philcoradio.com/phorum/showthrea...ght=37-116 My old thread. Look at the comment #47 by JohnR. This has both Service Bulletin # and the pot (#128) removed. I guess it is a dual pot, as both pots have the same number. Funny...in the mentioned SB #258 I found nothing about codes 125/126.

Tnx Mike,
I thought that was the case but wanted to be sure. There's a poster on arf that was asking abt the differences. When my pals were reading comic books I was down in the basement in my dad's workshop.
