Silvertone 1720 Information

In any case it is a nice radio and will be a good performer should it be properly taken care of (and maybe it has been).

Lisa what you can do possibly ....no, forget it. Find a guy in PA who would do this for you.
Where in PA? West or close to NJ?
A show in Kutztown is coming in 2 weeks, if you are close you could bring the chassis and someone could take a quick peak while you are enjoying the scenery (and possibly buying more radios). At least it can be confirmed if the radio has been repaired and how long ago. You only need the chassis (you will have to extract it and bring it in).

The tag at the shop said Philco radio. But I couldn't find anything that looked like it under a Philco name. I finally typed in the name Slivertone on the front and found my radio. 

The tubes in the back say Philco on them so I don't know if its possible to switch the chassis....(the part with the tubes on it?) and the cabinet..(the main part of my radio?) that's why I'm not sure its a true Slivertone.

I don't live to far from Kutztown, I may take it there! Thanks Morzh.
