Philco 201X incognito
#13

Have been waiting on some parts to come in but in the mean time tested the tubes. All better than 75% except for the 37 open heater, 6A7 usable as is the 75. The dead 37 wouldn't have been a show stopper just would prevented the shadow meter from working. By all appearances the chassis had been well maintained over the years, just sat round for a long time. The cabinet is a different story.
Still have a couple of blocks to do and a tubular to replace. After that I've the a cloth cord and acorn plug to fit. Then the fun really begins...

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
