So, for those of you amateur radio people who are in the process of restoring, or thinking of restoring an old Philco, hang in there, and don't forget to connect some antenna wire to the antenna terminal when you are done!

I can honestly say that, after dragging in a respectable amount of stations with my 40-190 (more than my portable solid-state radio, at the very least), I haven't thought about hooking up an antenna wire to it in years.  Which is a shame, because there's actually a long wire running across my attic and a port for it in the living room.  Across the room from the Philco, of course.
