HAve a lead on one of these Philco's with the double doors and 12 count tube radio.
I can pick it up for $50 if I want it.
Supposedly the cabinet is in great shape and the radio does not work.
Of course this is a Beam of Light changer and is probably worth more than the $50.
I have a couple 42-1012 philco's right now and find that they are the worst chassis to work on.
Layer after layer of pushbuttton crap and components buried in the mess.
Not sure if I want to get into another nightmare or hope for the best on this one?
What do you guy's think?
