Picked up a 39-116 yesterday with 2 rough remotes.
Wondering if the remotes are required to operate the radio?
I don't see anythin on the radio to specify remote or manual operation.
Brought it up on my variac and the tubes and lights glowed.
Just got static, but there was audio.
Cabinet needs work, and I think the chassis and speaker is repairable.
Not too crazy about the cabinet style, but it was Philcos top of the line in 39.
Are the batteries still available for the remote?
