Hello all;
I was wondering if anyone knew, offhand, the approximate dimensions and weight of a Philco model 81B for shipping purposes?
Regards

14 inches high, 12 inches wide, 8 inches deep. I'm afraid I can't give you an exact weight, but I would estimate around 15 pounds. I know you folks in Canada use the metric system, so I'll let you make the conversions. Icon_mrgreen

Thanks Ron;
That was what I figured based on weighing the Philco model 80 chassis I had. What I Did not know was the dimensions of the cabinet. Pounds and ounces is fine for weight, same with inches and feet, just about everything outside of government uses the Imperial system of measurement anyhow, like lumber and carpet.
Regards
Arran
