Hi,
Mmm, I wounder if that 116RX is the same one from San Diego that just sold on Ebay. Looks like they just put in that new grille cloth.

Sure would have liked to have walked into a store and found that one!
By the way, on your 112, if I read your post right I hope you're not planning to take out the original electronics and replace them with something modern. The old set is should be very restorable. If you want to play something over it from you ipod get a low-power AM transmitter (perfectly legal), such as the SSTRAN, and play that over the air in your home to the radio. Will sound much better!
Make sure the set is restored before plugging it in. You've probably read this:- http://www.philcoradio.com/tech/plugin.htm
