Why does everyone say that there is nothing on the AM broadcast band to listen to? Even if there isn't anything local there are tons of stations that you can tune in at night thanks to the skip signal. The Philco 112 was an early superheterodyne, with push pull 45s in the power output stage, it should work very well once restored. I like those Norman Bell Geddes designed cabinets, sort of a mix between oriental and art deco styling, hopefully I will find one one day. They were obviously good sellers in their day, and well built, since quite a few have survived. For whatever reason, in spite of being styled by a famous industrial designer, they don't seem to have any more of a following then any other Philco floor model. Maybe people don't like the hybrid styling?
Best Regards
Arran
