Hi, everyone,

I have slowly been working on an old Philco Model 42-322 radio. One of the things I'm learning about these radios (through videos) is that it might be wired to the chassis. Either using a polarized cord or a three-prong cord. Looking at the schematic, it doesn't seem to be wired directly to the chassis and a continuity check on the plug and chassis doesn't show any indication of it. The cord needs to be replaced anyhow, so I wanted to know how other people have corrected the issue if it exists. I'm fairly new to soldering, and restoring radios, so you might have to simplify things for me.

Thanks for any help you can provide me. 

Have a great day. Icon_smile
Patrick.
