My guess is The Depression, lagging sales, and a high-priced outsourced designer may have been some of the reasons. Bel Geddes may have had a short-term contact so Philco could test the waters???

Ron can give you a better insight, I believe.

Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
