I have acquired a Philcophone which, apart from being in a terrible state, is missing its nameplate. I can find info about a model 901 with tubes 2 X 6K5g, 25A6G & 25Z6G but my set has 2 X 75, 18E & 25Z5 & a 301 ballast tube. Can anyone shed any light on the model of this set & does anyone have a circuit diagram?

Interesting, What code number is on the label on the back of the chassis?

I haven't been able to find any information on the 901 other than the code 121. Maybe some pictures would help.

There-in lies the problem. There is no label on the back of the chassis, doesn't look like there ever was one, & the wooden back is missing. I have a circuit of the unit with octal tubes but there are some major differences with mine and my one has been badly got at anyway.
