Philco 37-116 label/graphics question
#1

Hi all,

Been following this forum for awhile, but this is my first post. I'm putting graphics on a 37-116. Radio Daze includes a graphic for the band selector lever. In every picture I look at, for both restored and seemingly original 37-116s, graphics are over the knobs but there is not one for the band selector lever. Even in the original advertising, I can't seem to make one out.


I asked on another forum and it seems that the 37-116 did not include a graphic/label over the band selector lever, but I thought I would get opinions here as well.

Thanks for any insight.

Hello Steve, and welcome to the Phorum! I haven't seen more than a couple 37-116's. I'm sure one of our members will have an answer for you. Take care and BE HEALTHY! Gary

Phico did not use a decal for the band switch function on the 37-116.

I knew you would get a quick answer on this! Post a photo or two of your project when you have a chance, and don't be a stranger. Take care and BE HEALTHY! Gary

There's not much need to label the band switch. Mine isn't (original finish). The selected band is illuminated on the dial.

Can't think of anything witty.
