I expect this to be my last foray into vintage radio and my finest expenditure.
I looked the schematic on N/A.
Not at all, a common tombstone. Push-pull output with Philco's tricky phase inverter circuit, separate osc and mixer and a tuning meter.
Some folks, don't have the luxury of going to some of the swap meets and have to depend on sources like ebay..
