1936 Philco 116B Early Version
#1

I worked out a deal with a local shop owner on this. I'm doing a repair on a radio for him, and instead of getting paid for parts and labor, it will apply towards purchasing this. He let me bring it home, since he didn't have space in his store, and I have a good working relationship with him.
Here's some pics of the initial inspection. You can see a hole was drilled in the front panel. There is a 1/4" jack in there, installed in the chassis. I assume it is for an aux input, but I haven't tested it yet.
The set does power up and receive stations. Icon_thumbup

You can see on the front of the chassis the jack that was added to the lower left of the dial.

It's a little dusty, but overall in good condition.

You can see the notes on the back of the chassis when it has been serviced.

And a somewhat crowded underside of the chassis.
