Hi Guy's,
Found a real nice Philco to add to my collection.
It's a model 16x console.
Did some reading on this one and they claim it was one of Philco's finest radio's.
Somewhat hard to find,although they sold alot of them.
Has an eleven tube chassis with a 15 lb. speaker.
Has a beautiful stock cabinet with the slanted speaker board and an enclosed speaker housing.
Guy I bought it from said it worked when he first bought it,but upon trying it recently he could not pick up any stations.
Maybe just a bad antenna wire or tube.
We'll see when I get it home.
What do you guy's think of this model?
Great forum,
murf
