I have decided to just restore this chassis as it came from Factory.
Otherwise I will spend too much time on researching .
I know Ron has seen many versions of this go by his bench.
Wonder what kind of tool adjusted the 2 Tuning Cap Trimmers.
Not even a thin wall 1/4 driver fits.
It is a good feeling to restore one as nice original shape as this is.
One of the Philco updates stated the Run number was stamped inside a Star on the rear of chassis.
I do not see this on mine.
In fact the EARLY(3 KNOB) Model 19 did this also, I had a STAR STAMP made for that one when I restored it .
