I restored one of these 20 big box a couple of years ago, got it working on old George Bush's 80th birthday, tuned in a news cast telling of his sky diving! Got two more 20 big boxes parts or restore,
Is your big box got the brass colored on/off switch and other hard ware on the front ? or is it nickled plated like mine? I've been told that they where all brass color, why is mine nickled? Is there any one out there in Philco land that knows AK and the 20 big box Icon_confused

: nickled plating? BILL
