Anyone ever heard of a Philco Tropic 3214 Portable?
#1

Just got one from a radio meet--and it's pretty well beat up, but I can't find any info on it. I do know it was made for export.

It's a three way portable and it's cabinet is similar to the leather-covered 53-658. Except this one has two shortwave bands along with the AM band. Also has a telescopic SW antenna.

I found a pic somewhere on the net, so this is what it looks like.

Does anyone have access to a schematic on this one?
