Philco (AUS) Midgette 46-40.
#1

G'day all from Downunder.. Thought I'd jump on & introduce myself after exchanging a few emails with Ron & also to say thank you as he put me on the right path in finding the model & date built of my Philco Radio.

Philco (AUS) 1946 MIDGETTE 46-40

A little back ground on this Radio : It was given to me when I was 8, (Now 53 you can do the calc), & I recently rediscovered it in a box a my parents place it needed a fair bit of tender love & care.. Very happy to have my 1st Radio back working again.

Regards,

Gus. 8)
