Good morning Ron, I know what you mean about the 1938 model tube shield bases being hacked up. I've had a few 1938 Philco models with the shields messed up and had to replace them--it was pretty clever of Philco designing the bases so RCA metal tubes couldn't be inserted in them. I'm curious, why did Philco use the enclosed bases in the 1936 models, use the open shield bases w/clips in 1937 then switch back to the enclosed bases in 1938? I thought maybe Philco noticed people using metal tubes as replacements in their sets. Ken
