Restoring a 1936 Philco 650 console. I've seen them with two different style band switch knob in the middle. Which did they leave the factory with in 1936?  (It looks like they went to the toggle style on the 37-650s.) John

I had the same question when I got my 116B - it had the unusual toggle knob shown in your photo on the left.

Ron answers this here: http://philcoradio.com/phorum/showthread.php?tid=11933

At least for the 116B - and likely others from 1936 - either is correct. Icon_smile
