Not to go off topic here but when Ron mentions the "Walton" Zenith I can't but help thinking....1. What would be the chances a rural farm in the 30's in WV would have "Hi Line" power 2. Given that the Walton's probably did not have an electric line to their home wouldn't be more likely that it would have been a "Walton" Silvertone Farm Set? They would have likely been Sears and Roebuck catalog customers, I often wonder how much $ a "Walton" 6 tube farm set would bring?

Just thinkin' (a dangerous thing).Icon_crazy
