Quote:There seem to be 5 tubes

I believe there are eight tubes. Some of them are hiding inside of tube shields. I believe you have a 118. To be sure, look at the dial. If the shortwave band covers 4.2 to 12 megacycles it is a 118. If the shortwave band covers 1.5 to 4.0 it is an 18. The speaker doesn't look to be Philco. The 18 and 118 are very good radios.
