Hello all. The first radio in my collection was a model 20 that was in my grandparents garage. I picked that over 50 years ago when we were cleaning out the estate. It needed knobs as well, and Mike Koste (gobs of knobs) took care of me very inexpensively at a Kutztown visit I made. Also picked up the missing tube shield I needed at the same meet. Not a head-turning radio performance-wise, but I still consider the model 20 the radio that really put Philco on the map. It's an amazing feat to think that over 300,000 of these radios were produced and sold in the grip of the Great Depression. I recently picked up a spare chassis for mine (less the tubes) for $20.00 at the MARC winter meet. Should provide some spare parts as I need them. Take care and BE HEALTHY! Gary
