The above link shows pics of my newly acquired Philco 37-660. It has four bands, and I'd love to know where I can hook up a make-shift antenna so I can pick up local stations on the AM band. The second pic shows the backside, and my meager knowledge makes me think the four screws at the bottom would be where I hook up an antenna...but which screws? Obviously the one marked 'ground' is just that. However, that leaves 'red', 'black' and an unmarked 4. Anyone who could let me know if I'm on the right track, and where to properly go from here, would be my best friend for the day! Thanks a ton.
