Hello,

I have a question concerning a volume control pot part number and just what value it is so I can replace it. The part number is 33-5469. It has five posts, two are turn-on, and the other three a wiper and two sides of a resistor. On my copy of the schematic I just cannot make out the value. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Oh and by the way, does anyone carry these pots?

Edward

By the way, what model number or chassis of Philco does this control come from ?

It comes from a Philco tabletop model 42-321. Thanks.

I can't read the value from the schematic, but unless you are a stickler for accuracy about any (looks like 1.5 meg) !!audio taper!! (Important) control with an on-off switch will work. Can you measure end to end, or, end to slider and to other end of slicer to get some idea of the value? It looks like the value of the pot will affect the AVC if it is worng. In a real pinch, I have been known to drill a small hole in a pot and squirt in cleaner, and solder the hole closed after it was working. Good luck, Lewis

it's a .5meg,center tap audio taper with switch,if your shaft is 1 inch long and d shaped i have new ones,let me know if you need,phil

Great thanks. The shaft is 1.5 inches long and I am not sure what a "D" type is but the cross section is shaped like a D. I would be interested but how much would it be and how could we arrange the swap?

if your shaft is 1.5 inches long this will be too short,right?if 1 in. is long enough i'll sell it to you for $7.50 plus shipping,usually about $1,email me at philcpphil@yahoo.com part is new,phil

Excellent observation about the AVC and I believe that is my issue. The darn thing isn't reading right and is jumpy so I might try your fix.

Edward, I just checked my 321, shaft length is 1 inch, this control is a dropin replacement, even the knob fits. e mail if you need one, i have 2 in stock.
