Philco Tropic Radio 48-821 code 121

I live in Mexico city and in my 10 years collecting vintage radios, I have seen several Philco Tropic radios that according the model, I am not able to find them on the Riders nor BeitmanÂ´s

the stickers are printed in USA but the models do not appear in any of the technical info I have inclusive on the internet

Does anyone knows something about this model 48-821 as this appears on the original Philco Sticker

Tube layout is as follow

14J7
7B7
14B6
50A5
35Y4

It has three Short wave bands and the Standard Broadcast band

I am looking for the schematic of this radio

Regards

Franky
