[Radioroslyn]

Well this started about 2:30am this morning. I got up and by 3am I was headed north. Normally I wouldn't make this long of a drive but thought this set would be an exception. It was up in the Boston burbs which is about five hrs each way. The set is a Philco 660L https://philcoradio.com/gallery2/1936a/#Model_660L
I've never seen one in the flesh. It's a odd cabinet with a door on the top that spring loaded, flips up when you push the round molding in the center top of the cabinet. The printing on dial is facing backwards and the dial is up side down.
The radio itself sports a ten watt P/P class A output stage, two IF amps, and a RF amp. Covers LW 150-390kc,AMBCB,and two SW bands 1.750-18mc. Should be a real humdinger when I get it working.
The cabinet is pretty good, the top has a LOT of scratches and will need to be refinished. The rest is not too bad except for a small piece of missing molding and a few chips here and there.
Anyway I met the seller at 7:30am and bought it. The price was very good too. I'm sure I spent more on tolls than on the radio. Hit the front door of my house at 1:06pm. Will unload it and get some pics of it on my flicker page. I know Ron will want one for the Gallery and I picked up a 42-854T (a nice sturdy portable w/sw) for the Gallery too. http://www.philcoradio.com/gallery/1942a.htm#am
