[quote]One last question: How much do you think I should ask for payment for this kind of work? I was thinking $5 for each replacement tube. It came with 3 bad tubes. Maybe 20 bucks plus cost of parts?[quote]
List all the tubes, caps and misc. parts five bucks for each tube is good, maybe a buck each for the caps.
Parts should add up to $30, and for the level of work you're doing, a $75 bill would be reasonable considering what $$$ a working console brings.
BTW-For the full safety treatment: Two 'Y2' capacitors for the line-to-ground caps, put on a grounded cord and pigtail fuse it at 1.5 or 2 amps.
That way, you ground the chassis by plugging it in and a shorter wire antenna would work better.
Its nice to see that Philco did not use that lousy rubber wiring on this one.
