The flea market was good to me again today. For $65 I was able to walk (actually run) away with these. Had to do some research to learn a little about the non-Philco unit. It's a Western Air Patrol Model 56 complete with optional chassis leaf and two tone (black/white) heavily taped and spliced power cord. Guess what gets replaced first?
