Bought another Philco, a 640 this time
#1

Bought it locally. It's complete. Needs a little wood work on the sides, down low.

Oh-oh! Brian has so many 650s now, he's branching out into 640s! Icon_lol

As Bill said, nice find. You'll have it performing like a 650 in no time.

Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
