Scored a 41-316RX !
#1

I stumbled across this set on craigslist a few days ago. The seller had just listed "Two Console Radios" with no brand or model #. He did include a photo of the front though and after a little detective work I determined it might be a Mystery Control set. He didn't have a remote and didn't remember his father (the original owner) ever using one with it. However, he described the chassis including the big metal box on the right and I figured it must be a 41-316.

I headed out to see it with a friend tonight and it sure was! After a little negotiation, I got it and a box of spare tubes.

Here it is on my back porch. The previous owner didn't have the remote, but I had picked one up years ago Icon_biggrin
