The chassis on that set is kinda tricky to extract from the cabinet. The dial glass is in the cabinet, rather than on the chassis. The chances of you breaking it extracting the chassis are minimal. More of a chance doing damage going back in if you don't mind the shafts sticking out of the chassis. ...

I always bum the neighbor's little air compressor to inflate my golf cart tires. He has not been feeling well lately, he's in his 80's, and it was a nice day. I thought I'd just drive the golf cart down to Discount Tire and let them inflate the tires. On the way home, I cut thru Home Depot parking l...

I did use the word "forgotten"......

Her material was played on radio some years ago, according to the wife. I still believe she has a good voice. rangy, clear, no falsetto. No screech. I think I'll listen to her CD again, more carefully this time......

Nice find! If you would be good enough to complete your registration, specifically post your location in your user profile, that would be much appreciated. We hope you enjoy the forum and welcome aboard!

I was not familiar with this artist. I have this CD from that group of material I bought at auction some years ago. She sounds fairly "country", but she has an amazing voice. I may have to add her to my list of "best girl singers". "Wish I Didn't Love You So" is an old ...

Riding a golf cart on main roads in the bike lane would be pure suicide. Plus, riding in the bike lane with a motorized "vehicle" is verbotten anyways. The deputy who said it was okay to ride on sidewalks also indicated it was safer than driving on main roads. There are several in the comm...

I tried to save on gas by driving my electric car, (a golf cart) to Discount Tire to get the tires inflated. It had been two or three years and one on the back was getting pretty soft. No problem with the tires, but on the way home I got stopped by a sheriff's deputy. He gave me the devil for riding...

I think Bill hit this one out of the park. My two 1203's were 1946 models. The tubes in yours are the same as in the 1203.

According to my Sams Manual Index, that set is in Sams 1015, folder 7. Steve should have the manual, like Rex has suggested.

I found out why gas went down 40 cents then right back up. There is a local gas station, convenience store that lowers the price on the third Thursday of the month. The other local stations follow suite lest they have no business during the "gas war". I just happened to be in the right pla...

The Magnavox TP 241 I redid plays 78 very nicely. It has a ceramic cartridge, diamond needle, tracks at five grams, feather-weight for playing 78's. The fidelity of the later 78's that were recorded on tape is every bit as good as the later LP's that replaced them..... I have long maintained that th...

Chris, to delete a post, look in the upper right hand corner of the white box where you type your post. There is a series of six orange boxes. The left hand most one has a pencil in it, that is to edit your post. I think there is a 30-minute window to do that IIRC. The second box has an "X"...

I had two 1203's. They are good performers as far as the radio goes. They use the D-10 changer, not one of Philco's best, IMHO. Easy to work on. Good luck with yours!

I have a 707. The "problem tube" with them is a 12AX7. I don't like the way this tester tests for shorts, otherwise, I like it. Output tubes should be professionally matched for best performance, particularly in a Magnavox bi-amp.

Antique Electronic Supply is now called Amplified Parts. They have quite the selection of grille cloth. Hopefully, you can find something close that will work.

Thank you!!

A country artist, still very much with us to this day, in his 80's. I'm not that much of a Johnny Lee fan, didn't like his material. I have this album, one of those I got in that pickup load of music I got at an auction in 2007. This album covers some of the better rock and roll hits of the late 195...

Check AES to see what kind of grille cloth they have. I used a cloth very similar to that on that old GE stereo I redid, had a touch more red in it, but yours has shrunken and faded. Does that cabinet show signs of being wet? PB Blaster works well on the cad dust. Spritz some on a paper towel, wipe,...

Ditto from here! Nice find. The dirtier they are, the nicer they build out. I like the shading on the expensive cabinet you linked. You do amazing work, and I look forward to watching your progress.....

I got the part today. They changed it since that golf cart was built, so I had to make a trip to ACE hardware so I could make it work. So far, so good. I put new wires from the charge port to the batteries, since the old one looked pretty bad. I don't believe I've ever seen a bakelite device so tota...
