Ok I'll start the ball rolling I think it's a 620 from 1936.
Could use a 6A7,75, 80, and a 42 tube.

When my pals were reading comic books
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.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!

Kirk,
 I agree it looks like a model 620.

Good morning Kirk! NEO6425 posted several photos of a 620 in his thread in Philco Electronic Restoration section of the forum. I agree with Terry and Henry. You've got a 620 on your hands there! Take care and BE HEALTHY! Gary

Thanks all!
I knew one of my chassis was a 620 but they are all on the shelves unmarked, lol... Not to figure out what the other one is....

Hi OSanders, Look carefully at the band switch. Turn it slowly and "wiggle" it around the desired band. ...MrFixr55 — 12:33 AM
