Philco 60 restoration

[bandersen]

I figured I start a new thread on this Philco since it's no longer a mystery

I brought it inside and took a closer look at it. The cabinet is nicer than I realized at first.

Of course, it has the dreaded metal caltrop feet. I pulled those and put on some felt pads


Here it is next to my 70 which has been badly refinished (not by me!).


I really hate the way they hard-wire these speakers. The only way to pull the chassis is to cut them or pull the speaker too.


There's been some work done on it. Looks like they just tacked the new caps across the old There are some new resistors too.


I should probably get a new dial scale since this one has warped.
