38, 38 A, 38 B
#14

For a power output tube in a battery set the 19 is hard to beat. In the 30's it was a popular tube to build low power portable battery powered ham transmitters, back then AC current wasn't everywhere yet. Philco used these https://frank.pocnet.net/sheets/201/1/1E7G.pdf but as you can see it's output is much lower.

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!

Is there a reference somewhere where you can punch in Philco part numbers and see what models those parts were used in?Jim Dutridge — 10:17 AM

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