Hi,

Been off this site for a long time...just renewed......looking for anyone with a Philco 42-395....I had my internals refurbished but have chosen to leave the case "as is." The case is in reasonably good condition and has cleaned up rather well.....It works ok but I do have difficulty getting stations...The bezel was in very bad shape but, through Ron, I was able to buy one from out of state....[outside of Texas]..Its condition was good with no cracks or breaks.......I do enjoy using it from time to time......The radio has surprising sound......Just wondering if any one with this type of radio is interest in chatting about it........Icon_angelIcon_angelIcon_angelIcon_angel[/size][/font][/i][/b]
