Hi,

My wife found this cool looking pink Philco. It has a rotating antenna on top which is connected to the handle. All very neat, but it doesn't work.

It didn't take long to isolate the problem. The first reistor in line from the line cord is open. It is marked with a part number (33-1366-1) and is a ceramic, looks like about 2-5 watts.

If someone could give me the approximate value, I'd appreciate the help!

Thanks,
Tim

Tim that would be R10 a 150 ohm 2.5 watt resistor.

Dear Tim,

Did you get this radio working? Either way, is it for sale? I think my sister used to have one whenever she was a teenager and would make a nice surprise birthday present for her. LMK.

Respectfully,
