Hi Brandon,
Couldn't find any info on the RCA 56x6 but did find a 56X5. Kinda similar to the Philco in that it's a AC/DC set. Same precautions should be used when working on this guy, hot chassis and all. $15 seems like good price covers BC band and one SW band.Picture here:http://radio.macinmind.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=147&g2_fromNavId=xc8fba783 Diagram here:http://www.nostalgiaair.org/PagesByModel/996/M0014996.pdf
Have fun!
Terry
ps looks like it has a faux finish. Don't use stripper on it!
When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
