The PHILCO Phorum

Found this on CL. Not the prettiest girl at the party, but a huge multiband tabletop that measures 27"W X 14.5"H X 12"D I'm OK with it for $40.

That's really neat! Multiple SW bands, like a Philco Tropic!

Nice find! I'm a sucker for shortwave units. What is the gizmo on top of the power transformer? Joe

That's what I was thinking Ron!!

The knob on top of the transformer is a voltage selector switch. Goes from 110v- 240. I set it to 125v since house current is now closer to 125 than 110. I'm wondering if this was an export model?

That is way cool! I've not seen that before.

Nice find. I love tabletop sets with the 'wrap around' grill. I have a beautiful GE J64 that is waiting for me to get to her.

Yes, a very neat set!!! Nice score!!

Voltage selector knob on top of the transformer should be a dead giveaway this unit was probably for domestic and export customers.

Nice find.

Should be a very nice addition to your home.
