Late model 116B cabinet
#12

Hi Arran, That's what I thought when I bought it that it was perhaps suppose to be there. But there were no wires or a switch inside. I pmd Ron and he verified that the 116's didn't have a switch much to my disappointment. I'm thinking that the switch was used on the older 16's to turn the qavc off/on as it doesn't work well on weak signals.
I've got a 16RX  http://philcoradio.com/gallery2/1935a/#Model_16RX  from 1935 and I don't think it has one either. It's been on the back burner  apart for a while having some veneer work done. Maybe in 2019 right Kirk??

It's looking a lot better than a hole now. I may play with it a little more but it pretty tough to hide the circle. For the holidays I put it back together and have been enjoying a lot.
