Excellent explanation of electrostatic shielding, gentlemen, thank you.
I am only aware of two Philco sets that had built-in antennas in the 1939 season - the 39-71T and 39-72T portables. All other 1939 Philcos were still designed for longwires. The loops in the 39-55 and 39-116 were only used to receive the pulses from the Mystery Control remotes.
Joe - yes, only the 1940 Philco models used that type of loop.
