New to the site. Found a reference to this forum on another site. Was impressed by a busy forum dedicated mainly to Philco. Working on my third old radio, have yet to come across a Philco. So... the first question that came to mind after finding the site was, what is it about Philco that inspired so much dedication to this brand of radio. Have experience on two Zenith's and one Wilcox-Gay. Let me know why my next radio should be a Philco. This question is not a jab in any way. Just friendly curiosity.
