I was unable to find a schematic, but it is internally almost identical to the Philco model 190 in my collection which I do have schematics for.
As received, it was not working. Someone had partially replaced the multi-unit electrolytic filter capacitors with a new unit, which was hanging loose on the top of the chassis. After recapping all paper and electrolytic caps, the radio started working. I gave it a good cleaning and alignment. Two of the tubes are missing tube shields, but they do not appear to be needed -- the radio worked the same with or without shields in place.
Because it is a 6-tube radio with separate RF amplifier stage, it is quite a sensitive radio. After alignment I was able to pick up many stations on AM and shortwave.
