Philco 46-1213 Power Consumption
#4

Thanks guys,

Radiorosyln,
I wasn't very clear in my second question, sorry.  The 175 watts comes from just pressing the phono button, turning off the FM or AM radio and running the turn table, so I think it is bypassing the radio sections and just running the turntable and power section of the radio.  The radio is in good shape, with all electrolytic and paper capacitors changed, which was quite a lot of them.  I finished tracing the schematic looking for any mistakes I may have done and all seems fine.  That's when I asked the forum for help, mainly on the phono watts consumption.

Morph,
I am familiar with your thread.  The wattage changes tuning the signal strength, not the station volume.  I have a Kil-o-watt meter somewhere, I'll check consumption with it.  I am reading watts on a Sencore PR-57.

I'd try replacing the bulb first and if that doesn't do it, then change the 35Z5 and see if the problem goes away.NostalgiaRadioTime — 12:28 AM
