I'll tell you what, the 116X is a good performer and the best shortwave console I have had to date. It makes me want a 116B for in the regular house so I can also shortwave listen. Looking for that will have to wait though, I just blew some change on a BIG RCA model 140 tombstone. Icon_redface With the performance of this radio, I can only imagine how a 37-116 or even a 38-116 performs! It seems Philco improved with each model year until the 40's.
No matter where you go, there you are.
