A member of the local radio club who is moving gave me this 37-630 today. I went to his house to pick up a 116B and a Stromberg Carlson 10. I also walked out with a stash of tubes, old grill cloth, a complete set of Riders, Baitmans and various Philco service manuals, which I have yet to sort.

I looked up the 37-630 in Riders but did not see it. The closes chassis I could find was a 37-620. Is that close enough or did Riders miss this model?

I have attached a picture of the cabinet, he already had the chassis out, and so it is now on my bench. Several caps around the band switches under the tuning cap look almost imposable to get too. I have yet to see a Philco chassis like this, why would they build it like this?????
