Just FYI, Philco filed a patent on the M7 turntable that is included in the 46-1201.  It is US 2,508,715, submitted April 18, 1945, issued on May 23, 1950.  It can be downloaded from Google.

I just recieved a Philco 46-1201 BingCrosby , pilot light comes on, but nothing else. There is power going to the phonograph, I don't have a tube tester, but could it be a tube? Or a capacitor? Its all original capacitors.I,ve come accross many radios with bad capacitors and and bad tubes, but still had power to the radio. But tis one is totaly dead...no sound, no tubes light up...where to begin? Is there one tube that supplies the power to the rest of the radio? Any help would be appreciated.
