Tgrace459, your 37-61 is the later year stye 37-61B, mine is the early year 37-61B with the rounded top cabinet. It's cool to see them both here. How does yours work ? Mine is very sensitive and selective for basically and All American 5.

It's pretty good. Being upstairs it gets some interference from the TV and computer when they are on, but when they are off (or especially at night), I can get a ton of SW stations and pretty strong and clear local stations.

Beautiful work gentlemen.
Feels like going back in time.

So here I am, listening to "In A Sentimental Mood" by Duke Ellington and John Coltrane on my 39-45, and I hit this thread again.
Thank you all.
That was better than a cold mojito on a warm beach evening.

It's not how bad you mess up, it's how well you can recover.

I recently finished my 95.  Thanks to all here that assisted.  Here is the dial.

Just completed restoration of a Philco 38-12.  The dial is a bit mundane compared to the preceding examples, but the photo looks good.
