I took a break from that portable and started in on a PT-61 that a friend gave me to fix about two or three yrs ago. Replaced about half the wiring and a few caps (someone else had been working on before). It playing well now but it has some knobs off of the GE console set ( sort of bullet shaped). So  are the knob on the gallery set the proper ones? They are a different looking than most Philco knobs I've seen

Yes, they are correct.

A few other Philco Transitone models use similar knobs (different colors).

TNX!!
O BTW Could you add a NEXT button in the Gallery so then you get to the end of the page you can go to the next page? This way you won't have to go back the main page and try to remember which month and year you where looking to go to the next. I mean it's probably just a simple GOTO right????
