I still on dogbone resistors
10/24/2013 8:25:03 PMjim l
Hey Edd, thanks a bunch man for all u put on here.Understand this~~~~~~~when I say solid color, I mean there is no other color on the resistor ! no color dot in center of resistor, no color on ends. With that, thanks again to all for help.

EDD's diagram is great - IF you use it and trace the components physically you should be able to figure them out.
I don't know about this Philco 95 - but I'm working on a Westinghouse (canadian) Grandfather clock radio - it uses non-standard dogbone resistors - many of which are a solid colour - I don't know how they arrived at their colour code - but it makes no sense to me - luckily the parts list in the service manual contained a list that showed the individual resistor's colours and their corresponding value.
Perhaps this radio used non-RMA resistors as well - or someone substituted a few in a pinch on a previous repair.

Although I didn't find a list specifically for the model 95, these were listed for models of the same era:
Orange - 50K
Silver gray - 100K
White - 250K
Battleship gray - 500K
Golden yellow - 5K
Auto buff or brown - 25K
Jade green - 70K
Belgium blue - 13K
Black - 10K
Green(white tip) - 1meg
Belgium blue(yellow tip) - 33K

The wattages weren't listed and as I mentioned, there was not chart linked to the model 95.

I think I would measure all resistors of the same color and get an average of the readings and compare to standard value of resistors.
