Hey now that's a novel idea, Ron. Coal's still cheap enough to stuff into stockings. Let's do it.

Oh I'm not obsessed at the loss. Chances are I'll get my money back but would rather have that model 50. Oh well, live and learn. I've plenty other restoration projects around my home. But the one that stands out so far as my pride and joy is that Zenith 7S363 I've restored to a real beauty now. OK, nuff said, this IS a Philco site. Thanks, GB.

You know, I can't help but wonder if this sort of thing will keep local swap meets alive after all...once enough of us get fed up with...you know, sellers who don't care.

Merry Christmas, Gary. Here's hoping that all of your radios in 2006 arrive in perfect condition. And may all eBay sellers who don't know/don't care how to properly package these nice old radios find only lumps of coal under their Christmas trees this morning!

73 de,
