Also, another more obvious way to tell:

Look at the dial scale.

If the dial shows two bands, one being the AM band and the other being 4.2 to 12 mc (MHz), then it is a 118.

If the dial shows the AM band plus smaller numbers above the AM frequencies, from 1.5 to 4 mc (MHz), then it is an 18 from 1933-34.

If the dial shows only the AM band, nothing else, then it is an 18 from the 1935 season.
