Hi there,

Recently purchased a Philco Q-1710. I’m trying to find out the year it was made. I’ve been trying to research online but I cannot find anything! Does anyone have any info that they could share about this model? 

Thanks!

It helps a lot if you post a photo. I'm guessing this might be a 1960s radio.

Hi there! I am having difficulty including a photo in my post. From what I’ve found, other Q models came out in the 60’s so I was thinking the same. I will continue trying to add a photo.

Hi and welcome,
Your Q 1710 dates from 1967 and is listed in Sam's Photofact #913-7.
