Hi everyone,
I'm hoping someone might recognise the valve lineup in this radio I got this morning. It is a single unit set with pushbuttons as well as a tuning knob.The plastic push buttons have seriously degraded. The valve lineup is as follows : 6A7 78 75 41 84.It has no R.F. stage and so only a two gang tuning condenser.I'm picking that the use of the 41 as output tube should help to narrow down the model as this tube apparently did not "have a long time in the sun" as it were.Any ideas folk may have on what model this set may be would be much appreciated.Unusually for a Philco set this one had only a valve placement chart and no other notes or diagrams inside .
Thanks everyone.
