Sounds like you have some nice radios. You got to love that dial on the 12-U-158. On the export sets they had multi voltage transformers and had a socket on the back of the chassis you moved the wire to the proper voltage setting. They also had a phono jack and switch on the back of the chassis on these sets. I have a NIB headphone adapter kit with phones for a 1937 set. It has a 8-S-154 pictured on the front of the box. It has a switch and volume control on it.
