Kewl! That the one used in the early tombstone. https://philcoradio.com/gallery2/1936a/#Model_116B. Just to make things clear the 116 code 121 is the table top or tombstone. The code 122 is the console model. It has a larger power supply and audio output stage. The rest is the same.
Quick troubleshooting tip. Use an ohm meter to measure the resistance on the spkr plug from one pin to the other three. Should see less than 4000 ohms or so. If not one side or both sides of the output transformer are open. Not an unusual problem.
Obtw Here's the service bulletin for that set (116B). With this you won't have to flip between the two model (the B and X) to see the whole picture.

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
