BCB Antenna Ideas

> unfortunately the 38-690 does not have a balance antenna provision.

Actually, it does. The 38-690, as well as the 38-116 Code 125, along with many other 1938 Philco sets, were designed for use with Philco's High Efficiency Aerial, which was a form of doublet or dipole antenna.

The 38-116 Code 125 uses the same RF unit as the 38-690, and more information may be seen below in this snippet from the 38-116 Code 125 service bulletin.
