I was wondering if it would be possible to get a higher res copy of a Crosley 124 schematic. I'm a little confused by the multiple capacitors they put in metal cans and the wire resistors in this set, and the blurry values on the databases' PDFs are really shaking my confidence in my being able to restore this set. Thank you for your help now and the many times in the past.

Neal, I took a look at that schematic. Doesn't look any worse than many.

Many of the schematics here are a little blurry. I have a CD of Rider's, which is no better.

I have a pretty decent computer monitor, and have found that the best resolution is obtained by jacking up the %-blowup within the Adobe pdf viewer. Works better than printing out the schematic, and then trying to look through your bifocals.

Is there a particular component that maybe I can blow up on my monitor and try to help you with?

Well, there is a potted dual cap riveted to the back of the chassis. It has stamped on it ".1-.5" The .1 seems to connect to the transformer associated with the #27 tube at the bottom of the schematic, but I can't figure out where the .5 uf cap goes to? What is that part of the circuit for anyway? Help!

OK, I starting to feel your pain - that schematic is quite bad. I couldn't identify the caps is question.

Does the dual cap have three or four leads coming out of it? If three, then one is a common for both caps. From that you could identify the node on the schematic where both caps should be shown schematicly hooked to. Then look for the two caps from there?

When you started working on the radio, was the dual cap hooked up?

If you post your email address, I can send you a clear copy.
