Philips 834A wirewound control
Geschreven door Mike Horne op 17. Jul 2007 21:12:53:
Hi. I have a Philips 834A radio, and have recently installed a replacement 1,960 ohms wirewound element (this acts as a volume control). Do these elements only fit one way, as the volume seems to increase when the control is turned anti-clockwise, instead of being turned clockwise ? There was no indication on the element to say which way it was to be installed (if any). The wiring has certainly been installed correctly.
Also, the set is less sensitive on m.w, but more stations are received on l.w. It does not look like the inductor cores have been interfered with. Can anyone suggest any servicing tips ?
The cabinet has suffered a bit with scratches on the front, and also marks on the sides of the radio. Can anyone suggest a way of trying to remove these marks, to improve the overall look of the radio ? The pattern on the sides look very delicate, and I do not want to make a mess of it.
Best regards
Mike Horne
