As I understand it, on the Philharmonic, the tone control is part of the sensitivity control. And since the latter is switched out when on phono, it means there’s no facility for a treble cut on…Continue

Hey all...I have two Philharmonic sets taking up space and I won't be finding time to do anything with them...so I am putting them out here. The first is a red band deluxe (1939). This set has caps replaced and does play but needs additional work. The second is a 1937 pointer dial set with the "Chicago" dial. This set is unrestored but complete. Both sets include a tuner, amp and a 15 in speaker.…

I'm working on a 1939 Beam of Light Philharmonic Deluxe and noticed a wiring error (ok, maybe)...in looking at the schematics available, it gets worse. Refer to the 3 images attached as needed. Here we go:
In the 1937 schematic, and in most sets I've worked on, pin 8 (cathode) and pin 5 (grid #3, usually tied to the cathode) go directly to ground. Pin 5 (at ground) is used as a tie point for the "pass through" caps in the IF cans. In the 1939 schematic, it looks like Scott added a…

Next Wed evening (10/16), I will be presenting on E. H. Scott and his radios on the AWA Shares monthly Zoom meeting:

You do not have to be a member of AWA to attend, but you do need to register prior to the talk. I hope some of you are able to join me - I've got some neat pictures and info to share.

If you are seeking any odd chassis parts, please email me with your needs (kent3256[at]hotmail.com). I have over 40 chassis representing all Scott models from 1932 to 1947, so if you need an odd item, I might have it. What I do NOT have are knobs, escutcheons, bottom plates, dial pointers and tuning meters from the 12-15-23 sets. Sadly, those are all in very short supply. I do occasionally get these very rare parts, so always ask - you never know what I might have available for your…
