Found out the model number of the Philips - it is 123, it was written in pencil on the back.

I just had to repair it, as the sensitivity had dropped right off. This was due to a resistor in the 6AN7 g2/g4 circuit having gone very high. The schematic says 150k, however mine was marked 120k but read 983k.

I also decided to replace the first filter electro as I think it was a bit leaky.

So it's back on the cupboard, playing music.

Always like to actually check the leakage rather than assume. Even that number one electro, is the one that lots fail to realise is the one with the highest voltage on it.
