Hello, BDM: I like your pic, the 1936 dials are my favorite of all the Philcos.

The 116X is an outstanding set. I have a 116X chassis and speaker in my 116B cabinet, it is easily the best sounding "table" set I have. Would like to find a 116X console someday.

Also would love to find a T10, but I do have an 8T14, and it too is a good set. There is currently a T10-1 in eBay, but it is covered in white paint and the chassis is tube-less and rough.
