philco 42-350,355
#7

Have not heard any crying babies....yet. Who knows, the Standard Broadcast band works well.

Here is mine, scroll to the photo before the one displayed and you can see the complimentary cigarette butt burn on top, sign of the times. This was before any work, not sure if I have an after photo. I got new pushbuttons and escutcheon from Larry Bordanaro I think was fellow's name. Cleaned the case and a little Orange and Beeswax polish and I left the case at that, has that patina as antiquers say. The photo finish is pretty good so why mess with it. Had a fellow in my club help with caps, busy underneath there......

I should probably do Grille Cloth, it gotcleaned and straightened, I will try to shoot a new photo, it is buried in basement, it is very heavy and so big it sometimes generates complaints from a certain person.....

In my Flickr feel free to poke around, nothin too personal or it would not be in there, you can peruse some of my radios, for better and worse.
