Philco 37-665B Restoration
#26

Great news! Repairman found and replaced bad caps resulting in greatly improved fidelity. Not all the caps are being replaced as many low power units have kept their tolerances. I've tried my best to scour the web to find elusive information successfully (so far).

I thank all of you who have been so kind helping. The vintage Philco community has bent over backward to help me restore my beloved tombstone to functionality. I owe you a great debt. When my "baby" returns home, when I listen to her, I will think of you all. Your pictures and advice have been crucial to her restoration. Your published books will be purchased with gratitude. Where I can help, I will try hard to be of service as I learn more. I'm still a novice at this.

Bless you all!
