... I think the pot in this particular 37-630 has been changed out before. It reads "very-flaky", even after I took it apart , cleaned, relubed, and put it back together. I have a spare (same Philco part# according to JF Riders) in a orig Philco 37-610 spare chassis here. Not sure my spare is any-good either! The 2 vol controls look totally different in physical size also. Any help on the proper megs would be greatly appreciated!! Riders vol 7 parts-list doesnt mention "proper-megs" at all. Unfortunately, I also dont have the official Philco service-data here either. Any help would be greatly appreciated in case I need to do a "retro-fit"!! I can "mod" the long shaft if necessary with a 1/4" shaft "coupler". Randal
