Let me know what you're looking for and I'll see what I can find.

I replaced the reactance coil tonight. I had 3 or 4 NOS Miller or Meissner replacements but I couldn't figure out how they were supposed to work as the original had 5 terminals and these have 6. They all have one terminal painted with a green dot but the Philco had it on the opposite side. Well, I solved my problem because further digging in my box-o-coils turned up a genuine Philco "pull". It has a different suffix but my cross reference charts take it to the same replacement. I got that installed after supper and, since I could now get audio on the bench with a converter box connected, naturally I had to try it again with everything hooked up. This is when it gets to be fun! Plenty of work to do but I'm very happy with how this is turning out.
