Welcome to the Phorum, JK! That is one very clean example of an 80-plus year old radio. Almost looks NOS! The information you're looking for is in the 1941 RMS yearbook. Click on the Philco Radio Library icon (bottom of the page), select service info, and 1941. This chassis is very similar to a 41-280X that I have, but have not restored as yet. Good thing to see is cloth insulated wiring instead of rubber insulated. You'll also want to replace the chassis corner rubber feet. It all looks innocent enough to work on, but exercise caution with that band switch. It will teach you patience! Welcome, and good luck restoring it. Keep us posted on your progress in this thread. Take care and BE HEALTHY! Gary
