Hello,
I just finished up a Philco Canada 17a, same as a 40-155 but built in Canada. It ia an outstanding performing radio. I have picked up Argentina and China on the shortwave with the internal antenna. The push button mechanism does need to be moved out of the way. However, you can take out a few screws and carefully fold it back without removing any wires. The buttons are normally shot but are being reproduced.
