Hi everyone. Just about got my Philco 89 123 done. From close looking there are no decals around the knobs on the front panel. Did this model have NO decals OR if it did where can i find them OR  at least a picture of what they looked like.

Thanks

Hi

The Philco 89 only had one decal - the PHILCO trademark.

You will want to use DCL-PH8 from Radio Daze.

Now, wait a minute. Judging by the photo on their website, it looks like they have changed the font on the PH8 back to how it used to look (incorrect). Geez....it only took me several years to get them to make it correct...I guess I'll have to contact them and ask why they changed it?

I'll bet they just used the wrong photo in their new web site Ron...let's hope so anyway.
Cheers,
Bob
