I got most of the Caps in today. Ive been replacing what I could. This set had three black beauties and was full of black plastic shell caps with "Philco" stamped on them. There all getting replaced. The Electrolytics will also be replaced in time. This set was pretty much a dead set when I brought it home. On top of the fried flyback I had no audio. The speaker made a sound that that sounded like a motor. Not the tube radio hum. Today, we have audio, loud and clear with no hum, no, motor sound. I hook the cable up to it and im getting stations.
So the tuner and IF stages are working. However I did not proceed with puting the Horizontal Output tube back in to see what the picture would look like. I need a flyback cage cover for a "Philco 16M91 Chassis" do any of you guys have one. Don't think it would safe to run this set without one. Also, The tube should have a safety glass of some sort. The tube number was hand written on the back of the tube and it list 21FB22 A. A seperate rectangular tempered glass panel could easily be made to fit. Im not sure what might of been origonal to this set.
