So this is my " Phirst " post and also a continuation from this previous thread:
Unusual 116X Console (philcoradio.com)
I recently acquired this radio from fellow PP member " radioray ", a very nice gentleman by the way. It was complete and the cabinet was beautifully restored, but it was not in working condition. After a trip to my local radio repair tech, I am happy to say that it is back with me and working once again, even the Shadow Meter works!! It sounds as good as it looks!!!!
I hold a special place in my heart for Philco's, my grandfather's family business sold and delivered Philco radios all over the Southeast of Pennsylvania and it remind me of him every time I fire her up. I see myself acquiring many more Philco's in the future.........
