Philco 37-630
#1

Was looking at a Philco 37-630/650 and asked some more questions and the seller says it has 8 tubes but is a 37-630 which doesn't make sense since the 630 should have only 6 tubes and the 650 should have 8. Were the cabinets similiar enough so that it may be a 37-650?

The console versions, which I know you are referring to, are very similar in appearance. The 650 is a bit bigger, though. Plus, you can also tell the two apart by looking at the trim at the top, along the sides curving around to the front - it is flat on the 630, but has a groove in the 650.

You could always ask for a photo showing the back view of the set...hopefully it wouldn't be as dark or fuzzy as the one the seller has posted of the front of the set...

Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
