Opinions On A 660X Please
#1

I am going to look at what I believe is a Philco 660X tomorrow. From the pictures that have been provided, the case looks like someone was going to refinish it as it looks very dull. Also the top has been painted black.......why I am not sure yet.

It looks complete, but someone has attached an extension cord with the receptacle end cut off and put it on the antenna and ground clips. What bothers me is the plug end is still there. If it got plugged into the wall wouldn't that fry a whole bunch of stuff???

They have listed it at $150. From what I can determine this is not a common set to be able to find, so maybe the price is acceptable??

Your thoughts and opinions are appreciated. Thanks.

Gene
