Philco 41-280? Is it worth it?
#10

I'm just going to take it slow, one wire at a time, that area around the bandswitch is the worst, so I'll start there. Oddly, I was measuring things, and discovered the first candohm I've ever seen in working condition...at least all the sections are working. It doesn't match the schematic, though. The large section is about 200 ohm more than the schematic says it should be. I've always heard that candohms should always be replaced, but now I have to wonder if I should trust the part or the schematic...the one I'm looking at says to use as a guide because there will be differences on the 41-280. I'll see if Chuck's schematic explains things better when It comes in the mail.
