Hi BOBC,

Welcome to the Phorum. I am in Charleston, W.Va., not far from you. Glad to hear of a Philco fan in Cincinnatti, most radio hobbyists I know of in your area of fans of Crosley. And understandably so, as Powell Crosley built some great radios in Cincinnati and was a real pioneer in radio and television broadcasting. But better than that, he built the Cincinnati Reds which most of us over in Charleston follow almost as a home-town baseball team.

Sounds like you have acquired some nice radios, especially that 37-620 chairside. Sorry I can't help on the trim ring but maybe others here on the Phorum will have ideas for a source.
