I can check the dial figures later. Right now I am trying to figure out if I should go to work or stay home. 
Took the chassis out, dusted it a bit. Needs cleaning.
Underbelly looks very clean and colourful, unlike my other Philcos, really bright colors. The resistors, mostly. A pity - many of them will likely have to go, but I hope, if the colours are that good, maybe some of them survevied well enough to be kept in.
Even the caps look good! Some of the large axial caps are there, not the backelite Philco type. Will see if they can pass for leakage/value, if not - I will keep the outer shell and stuff it with new ones, same way as the electrolytics. Wires are good too!
The cord is probably not original, though it is the cloth-covered type, and only has outer cloth ripped in one place in the middle, and the wires inside (also cloth-covered) seem to look very good, soo I wonder if I shoud replace the cord or keep it. I think it is not original since the pluig is not typical brown round with Philco logo, but rectangular without logo, though seems old enough to be from 60-s - 70-s.
I wonder if anyone sells Philco power plugs.
OK, back to watching the storm.
