Hi guys, starting to recap my 41-250 and I noticed
a RCA phono input jack and toggle switch on the
rear apron. I know this set has a push button to allow
wireless reception of a phonograph or TV and
find it strange that there is also an RCA input. In
Looking at it closer it almost looks factory except
the RCA jack is mounted with two different style
nuts and bolts which raises my suspicions. Also my
Riders doesn't show a phono jack so my question is
is this an original factory setup or was it added later
by someone? If it isn't original then I will remove all this.
Thanks for any ideas on this.
