Philco 39-116
#10

I have found at least two in my area, and several other 1939-42 Philco consoles with squarish cabinets, Philco had a distributor in the region as did G.E. In the case of the one I was thinking of getting the guy was more interested in playing email tag then actually meeting up, so I lost interest, it was a shame because he also had a Philco 118B, but whatever. I was not that desperate to get one because I already have my fill of consoles, and, in the case of the 39-116/39-3116, the radio receiver itself isn't really anything special, five of the tubes are dedicated to the wireless remote circuitry. If you want one bad enough start hitting the swap meets in the U.S Midwest during the summer, or get Klaus to pick one up for you if he goes down there.
Regards
Arran
