So I bought a Philco 90 off eBay for $95.00 and picked it up. I am now looking it over and I am lost. I think it is the early 90 with the dual 45's but the tubes in the sockets are all completely whacky...

There is a big 47, a few 27's, a few 24's, an 80 and one I cant read.

The chassis layout is the early one. The tubes in the sockets don't match the later 90 either..

Anyone?
