Found today at Goodwill
#1

Went to our local Goodwill today to look for an affordable computer monitor and keyboard to put with a desktop tower I was given. (Yeah, I blew up another laptop and combined the two into the franken-laptop I am posting this on! Icon_lol ) Anyways, I never made it past the front desk as there was a Philco lowboy there for sale, a model 95! I bought it and decided I could look for computer parts later! A Philco is more important! The cabinet is ok, though the grill is broken (as usual). Electronically, this radio checked out fine except the speaker which has a bad output transformer and the canvas cone is rather damaged. Right now the 95 is working well on the pair of globe 45s that came with it (and fell out on the way home!) and another model G speaker I borrowed from my extra model 87. Hopefully I can either repair the original speaker or I might be able to snag a parts 95 I found last month if the guy is still willing to sell.

   
   
   

No matter where you go, there you are.
