Two Philcos followed me home
#9

Am I only 28? Feels like it sometimes. Hello Music, I have an Army Signal Corps BC-348 I got from Fair Radio Sales in November 1974, an RME 45 from an old retired gent I knew back in the 70's who used to build and inspect amplifiers for AMI Jukebox Co. here in Grand Rapids, a hulking 80+ lb. Navy CFT 46245 receiver from the same gent, and a Philco 38-93 I got at a garage sale. I used to have a G.E. J-64, a Firestone S-7403-9 or some similar model #, a cabinetless 1936 RCA 6K2 and a Philco 42-345 I replaced an electrolytic to bring back to life in about 1971. I think I had a couple RAX and/or RAK receivers, an MN 26 "Y", and an RCA 9K3. Oh, and a Hallicrafters 5R10A, and a Silvertone. Dunno what happened, traded,taken without permission, stolen by Barnabas Collins in that parallel time lunacy they had going..... Icon_rolleyes Had fun with them tho. Icon_smile Sold a Magnavox Regency Symphony in about '72 I've been tolchocking myself over ever since. Icon_mad
