I have no idea why I decided I wanted this, but here it is. Maybe I am going to find a 118B cabinet and speaker????

Nice knobs! If you want to make a Frankenradio I've got a 650 cab.

Maybe because the 118 is a pretty good radio! I can not recall ANY 118 that I had not being an excellent receiver.

Terry,
Is your cabinet a table model?

Hmmm... not sure the 118 control shafts will fit in the model 650 holes.

Mike: if you're reading what I just wrote, don't (heh heh heh) go there....
