Philco 70 antenna lead
#1

Seems odd to me that Philco would run the antenna lead over top of the filter caps and the power cord. Would that not induce unwanted noise? Has anyone noticed this and tried rerunning the wire along the chassis?

If you mean the wire going from the Volume pot to the back, here

It does not seem to run ovefr those. Quite the other way.
(click to the phot of the chassis bottom).
In another chassis I see it crossing diagonally only over the power wire (not over the can), but this is at a right angle, so it is pretty insignificant.

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 see in that picture that the power cord is held next to the chassis with the clip that in mine holds the antenna lead. Looks like the person who had this radio before me routed the antenna lead like that. I'll reroute the lead.

My wire runs the way yours does, Jim. From the antenna, to the clip under the right rear chassis mount, then to the volume control.
