The PHILCO Phorum

Here is a receiver that I friend in Illinois gave me. He had no idea of what it was. I think its a E.H. Scott RCH receiver. Here are some pictures..




No markings on it anywhere .. Its missing the name plates..

It seems to match this picture of a RCH..


Can anyone positive ID this?

Thanks

No expert on these Skip but the chassis picture on the RCH sure appears to match what you have perfectly as far as I can see.

Better keep up on ur vitamins!!! Looks like a backbreaker!!!!
Don't know much about your rx. Have seen a few over the years but never took one home.
You may try the ARC-5 forum over at yahoo. They discuss some other military stuff other than ARC-5 stuff.

Ok thanks for the info.. Its built like a tank.. Covers ..



I think it was used on Navy ships. Receives well. I did download the manual.. I am going to do a full alignment and then probably sell it.. No room for it as I have my 2 R-390's , the Collins R-388 and a Big old Hallicrafters SX-101 RX and the HT-32 Transmitter.. which take up a lot of room..


Thanks

[attachment=7440]These were also used in a Mackay shipboard communications console after the war, under the designation SLR-F.

Very Interesting..

Thanks
