Hi Ron,

Great Job as always, just what we expect coming from one of the Top Philco Gurus. Icon_thumbup

I have one painted "white" Icon_eek Long Story, was told I was getting a 116B. Icon_eek Least it had it's original & infamous K-17 speaker. Icon_biggrin

I have removed "Almost All" the paint from the top & sides of my cabinet, still has a milky tinge to it Icon_rolleyes , haven't went after the front yet.

I see that your cabinet now has the 2-tone finish instead of the original finish that was on it. What dictates going that route? As I might have to do something Imaginative to my cabinet.

Confused once again,
Lloyd
