Philco Predicta Networks
As some of you know, I've made up all new networks for my Predicta Debutante and Seventeener II restorations. I've been asked if I will make them available. I'm working on that this past 2 weeks.
I've identified 31 separate part numbers for the networks to support the entire Predicta line along with the Seventeener II and III. I have 17 designed so far. The rest will come hopefully this week. Some of them will use the same board but will have different capacitors/resistors. The process is a bit time consuming. So be patient and over the next few weeks I should be able to have them for sale. https://tvrestorerguy.com/wp-content.../100_1159a.jpg http://i1060.photobucket.com/albums/...pshwmrhee9.jpg |
This would be awesome. I know i will be interested.

Wow, nice work. Wish these were around back in 2013 when I had the board off my Holiday. One of my networks was replaced by a previous owner (basic perf, nothing fancy), but the rest are original. I might be interested as well.
|
Thanks for doing this! It'll be a great resource for the community and a huge timesaver.
|
Is this something you might put on eBay? Should be some money to be made. I think it’s great you made them, and would buy some for my next predicta.
|
Ok, I only need 30 different part numbers. I have 23 designed so far. The 7 are for chassis 8L35 and 9H25. Seventeener II and III. I have the Seventeener II chassis 8H25 networks designed.
Getting there. |
I appreciate the replies guys. Thanks.
|
Just an update.
I finished the design on all 30 flavors. Now onto putting together an order, then double checking my work. Then to organize the "build" documents. Getting closer. |
Thought I'd see if there was any known errors in the documentation, both Sams, Riders, and Philco that I should know about. So if anybody knows of any errors, and or production changes, please let me know before I "freeze" the design on these 31 boards.
Thanks. |
Latest update. I populated about 70 PCB's. Next up will be to pot them, paint them, then apply the part number. Then they'll go on sale. About a week guys.
|
Awesome work! I have nice condition ’60 Continental aka Danish Modern that really deserves a set of these. I’ll keep watching here for updates.
|
The first batch of networks are finished. Right now I have enough for a couple of sets for each chassis 9L37, 9L38, 10L4X, and 11L43.
On to pricing and making up the ad copy. These things have been a lot of work. Very, very soon guys. https://tvrestorerguy.com/wp-content.../100_1556a.jpg |
Very nice. And making those looks like a full time hobby in itself. ;)
|
I've placed an ad in the Classified sections. Thanks for being patient.
|
Even though I don't need any of your networks I want to point out as a technician that this is very clean, authentic and impressive detail work :thmbsp:
