Philco FT9 control head assembly

[keith oh]

I would like to find blow up assembly pictures of the 1935-1936 FT9 or FT6 Control head. Have one apart, trying to fix the switch, and cannot remember how to reassenble it.

Somewhere there must be this information. Anybody have an idea where to look?

tomorrow I get to play, I will look to see if one of the 2 I have is the "switch" kind

Hope these have enough detail to help you

Thanks a million Kurt but it is the inside of that little black switch assembly that has me baffeled. There is a little tiny coiled spring that flips an arm over to make power connection. It (the little black box)cannot be taken apart without fileing off a couple of simi-tubular rivets and then things fly apart on there own befor you can see how they are put together. The 36 head does not switch in the head but the switch is in the radio box, a big improvement.

Post a picture of the pieces, then perhaps I can help
