I'm working on a Philco 6d525 and know I am looking for or some way of repairing the speaker cone. About half of the cone is gone. Can you recone or get a repair kit for the little 4 inch speaker?

:Sorry about the philco. It is a Zenith.

Hi

You could repair the cone youself with glue and a little paper.

Others can do it for you but that's costly.

Could use a modern 4" speaker which are common but won't have a field coil. The field coil could be used from your original or a resistor used in its place.

::Thanks for the reply Norm :)
Is there an article on changing on changing the radio from a field coil to a pm speaker?

Here is what you can do. Replace the field coil with a resistor of the same or slightly larger value. Use a 10 watt rresistor. It will operate warm. If this gives too much hum increase filter cap values.

6D525 uses two 20 mf @ 150 volt filter caps. Use up to 47 mf if necessary. This value was used in other radios which didn't have field coils.

:Thanks so much for the info. Would the resistor mod remove any value from the radio?
