Gallery Problem
#1

Hello Ron,

I was browsing thru the Gallery and noticed that your model 52L's text is the same as your model 490. http://www.philcoradio.com/gallery/1932b.htm

I didn't see any other way to contact you other than thru the forum,

Regards,
Paul

Hi,

Actually, if I 'fess up I was in the gallery looking at the model 23X, as I just did a BIN on the one that was for sale a couple or so of hours north of here in NH. In the past I've sat and watched rare Philcos go by, hesitating to bid, and later regretted it, so this time I decided to bite.

Thank you for pointing that error out to me. I am frankly amazed I did not catch that before now.

I will fix it as soon as I can...can't do it right away, though.

You can contact me here:

Thank you Ron.

I think that when you're very familiar with something the brain reads what it expects to be there...& when something different finally does become apparent you're left wondering how on earth you ever missed it. Happens to me all the time.

It always amazes me with with posts you make on a forum, documents you're editing and the like. You'll check them 20 times & they look just fine, but the instant they're published you'll spot the glaring errors...

Anyway, wandering off topic a little here.

Paul
