Philco 16B & 116B instruction pamphlet
Posts: 102
Does anyone have the instruction pamphlets Philco included for either or both of these radios - 16B and 116B?

Scott,
Did you check the Downloadable files section? I found some info on the 16, not sure if this is what you're looking for. There's also a thread with the 116X manual available. It should be similar to the 116B, since the coverage and controls were the same.

If this isn't what you're looking for, a hunt through the internet is probably called for, unless a member here has it, and just hasn't scanned and made it available yet....

Thanks Jeff. I already found the 116X pamphlet and the 16B code 125 sheet. Just nothing specific on on the two I mentioned. A first hunt on the internet turned up nothing. I will keep looking though. If it find them, I will post and share them.

The lower pic radio doesn't seem to be a 16 or 116.

Mike, it is a 116B alright, just refinished incorrectly (no two-toning).

Indeed Ron, it is not done correctly... but, beggars can't be choosers. I will correctly redo it when I retire some day - lol! That said, here is the interior tube layout sticker.

Yep, now I can see it. I thought it was 620 or such.....it almost looks smaller that way.

It'd hard to argue with the tube layout label.
While the finish isn't as it should be, the 116 is a strong player on all bands. Now, if there was just something descent on radio to listen to... lol!
BTW - I'm still looking for those operating instruction pamphlets!
