Where does - Radioroslyn - 05-15-2016

the 41-300 fit into the 1941 lineup of sets? Short of having a bol and a mystery control is it the top of line? I really like the curvy speaker grille.

Speakin' from experience, eh?

I think that is a spectacular design and would love to add one to my collection. I am sure it is a lite weight compared to some of the 20's consoles I have.

I find a lot of the 20's consoles quite plain or really gawady but all weigh a ton.

In the initial 1941 Philco model year lineup, the 41-300 is second from the top of the line 41-316 which has wireless remote control. The 300 has more tubes in the audio section, though, making it (arguably) the better radio overall.

You don't know how tempted I was to sneak that big honkin' set into my Excursion! Icon_wink But it was already pretty well packed...plus I'm trying to cut back on big consoles around here, not add more...

> how tempted I was to sneak
That's like trying to sneak out of a car dealership with an Excursion under your overcoat. [Image: http://philcoradio.com/phorum/images/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gif]It's a hard set to hide. I felt a little bad cause I knew you where sort of looking for one but Kirk and I had been trying to get this down to me since last fall. Sam was giving me the evil eye [Image: http://philcoradio.com/phorum/images/smilies/icon_twisted.gif]because I had forgotten that it was coming us back here along with a fair amount other big and or heavy stuff that didn't sell. Heard you did pretty good with the pushbutton set at the end of the table.[Image: http://philcoradio.com/phorum/images/smilies/icon_thumbup.gif]

Oh, H**l, don't feel bad, Terry. Icon_smile I do admire those big 1941 Philcos but I have to limit myself, console-wise, these days.

At first I didn't know what you were referring to...what pushbutton set?...and then it dawned on me what you meant. Thank you, Terry...you helped make it happen! Icon_thumbup
