Two new (to me) Philco's have taken up residence here. A 38-9K console and a 37-670 tombstone.
They both will need recapping. Electrolytics have been replaced previously in the 37-670, but it must have been a while back from the look of them. This set I was told came from Alan Jesperson a few years back. It is in overall nice condition case wise and currently picks up stations on all bands.
