My "NEW" Philco 37-116
#3

Thanks Electro!
I drove to Massachusetts yesterday to pick it up.The guy didn't think it was going to fit in my car, an '02 Caddy. I don't know how much work has been done to it. He had it plugged in and playing. But there is a low hum so I am sure it needs caps and probably resistors. My aerial will be for display only. I will use another wire antenna to hook up to the set. I just think the '37 looks much nicer than the '38.

He also had a model 70 baby grand that looks really nice, and a 37-61 that I bought for $20. I also love the cathedrals, but have a hard time in my mind justifying the prices for the 70's and 90's for a broadcast band only radio.
