I found the schematic for the model 296 and looking at the phono connection and am trying to understand the phono switch and connection. I understand some of the schematic, but would be grateful for some assistance understanding the way the phono is switched in and out of the circuit, and which of the tubes are the audio amplifier.

The suggestion to connect at 28 & 30 works well, but I'd like to understand the difference between connecting there, and alternately at 24 & 26.

Here is a link to the model 296 schematic: http://www.philcoradio.com/tech/images/296.jpg

Thanks in advance.
