Hello,
I received a radio chassis from a friend. It came with a Philco Model G speaker and I am sure the chassis is a Philco. It has 7 tubes but does not seem to match a Model 511 or Model 86 chassis. I want to restore it to working condition so my kids and grandkids can see how early radios worked. I plugged it in and all tubes lit up except what I think is the rectifier tube (80).
The identification tag is mostly gone but I can make out Philedelphia Storage Battery Co. on the very bottom of the tag.
Would you help me please identify the chassis.
Thank You,
Rich Marchese
