Hi everyone,

    Picked up a nice Philco model 44 cathedral from an estate sale
    over the weekend. While looking it over for the first time I noticed
    the wave band switch worked very well on a up and down gear
    system, but the station selector was free wheeling. My question
    is does the station selector also work on a gear system and if so
    how are the gears set up? I did notice that the selector shaft
    had a small gear on it.
    Also the dial scale is good but dirty. How is the best way to try an
    clean it?
    Thanks for any help and information.
