Philco 37-116X vs 15 tube Zenith
#4

Thanks for the replies! I have been looking at these 116's. Pricing (on CL) varies from $150-$600 ($600 for a "restored" one.) Willy sold one for $336 plus the freight but the pics are gone so I don't know what it looked like. The trick is to find one locally that isn't overly expensive. All the "deals" seem to be in the midwestIcon_rolleyes

I prefer the look of the '37 over the '38. It is difficult for me to think of the slant front as attractive. Now if it was a 690.................

There was a Zenith 15u269 on CL for $800, but it had a hole in the grille cloth and the finish needed work. I don't know about the electronics on that one. It is gone so someone evidently bought it. Willy sold one for $895 plus shipping recently.
