I'm currently working on a Monitor Radio brand Philharmonic console, which I plan to try to sell once done. Waiting for a part to come in. In the meantime, I pulled down and opened up what is going to be my next personal restoration. A 1935 Philco 45C "Butterfly". This was a birthday present to myself back in February. Tubes have been checked, and only the 42 was a little low. The on-off switch isn't functional, so I'll have to pull that and see if it can be repaired. Otherwise, overall, it's in pretty good condition.
