Identify this radiobar.....
#5

Now that I look at it again I can see what you mean, I wonder if one of the flats is really longer on one side or it that is just the camera angle? I wasn't aware that Radiobars only came with a Philco chassis, I thought maybe they would build to order since they were an independent firm. Since it obviously has the wrong chassis and a modified panel anyhow I would make a new panel that fits the Stromberg Chassis correctly, much as I like Philco that Stromberg is a higher end set then the Philco 620 that probably used to live in there. Still it could be put back to being a Philco, either way the glassware looks missing and that's going to be the hard part to get.
Regards
Arran

P.S Yes it's been a while since I posted on here, just thought I would get away from the other forum and see what was going on here. I was getting tired of reading threads with people citing things from the error ridden Stein books as valid information, the man is an antique dealer, not a collector, and certainly not a historian.
