Understanding tuned antenna inputs
#2

I would suspect that it's just a way to get you to buy a Philco antenna. The older sets just have a single termination for the antenna connection for a longwire. The later set with two connections is set up for an antenna setup being fed with Hi Z ladder line in a dipole configuration. They tend to work a bit better than the longwire, quieter and a little directional.

I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.

Now I think I've got!
