Can someone please tell me how to determine the difference between a Model 37-610 and a 37-620?
Thanks in advance, Greg

Hi Greg, the main difference between the two is the 37-620 has an extra tube on the RF deck a 6K7G used as a RF amplifier for a total of 6 tubes on the chassis whereas the 37-610 only has 5 tubes and no RF amp. The 37-620 is the better of the 2 chassis.   Ken

I think that the 37-620 has more bands on it as well.

Good morning everyone, the 37-620 has 3 bands same as the 37-610, 37-611, 37-630, 37-640 & 37-641 (they have identical tuning ranges)    Ken
