What you say is accurate Ron, the European sets had to at least be more selective since the station spacing was 9 Kc instead of 10. Also the tax on tubes drove the fewer valve sets to have much nicer cabinets. The Cabinets on the British Philcos are really works of art compared to the US sets of the same size.
