Thanks for your link! Yours is one of the threads I spotted on restoring a 46-1226 Code 125. I will be referring to it frequently as I proceed. It is great to be able to share information here on these nice radios. I think many things were in a considerable state of change after WWII. Supplies of parts were likely short and it takes a while for manufacturing to ramp up again. The shortages resulted in factory production line changes to get products out to dealers and customers. Television was looming in the future and much research was being put into that type of product line. The advent of lower cost televisions caused the public's allocation of entertainment funding to shift considerably as time moved forward.
