Thanks Ron, I've just run into one of these beasts. It's a 116B I picked up at the last Estes auction. It has the changes you describe (http://philcoradio.com/phorum/showthread.php?tid=14957)with one additional twist. It has the unusual resistor leading from the volume control like the earlier version. What would the purpose of this resistor be? This is going to be a very nice radio.
