1950 Philco 7" sets are notorious for faulty HV oscillator design. They tend to bloom and fade after about twenty minutes. Not only is there no known cure, one dedicated restorer going to the trouble of replicating the oscillator coil resulted in a brand new coil that does exactly the same thing. Don't shoot the messenger.
