Hello.
I live in Spain and I am new to the forum.
I have several radios Valve, but so far no Philco.
I wanted to have a radio that can restore and I've decided on a 80 jr.
When I receive it I will put pictures, but you need an extensive restoration.
A greeting.
José

You are sure to be an expert at restoring radios in no time flat with these guys to guide you.
I just got my first 80jr this week so it will be nice to see another one get restored!

Welcome, Jose!
I am looking forward to seeing your 80 jr.
It's not how bad you mess up, it's how well you can recover.

I want to thank you for the great reception towards me.
When you receive the 80jr. I will provide photographs, sure I will need help and advice, I am now reading most forum threads to get familiar.
A greeting.

Could be serial #, could be chassis #....no es muy importante.
What is important is that this is 80jr.
