What do I have? Philco 655
#2

Hi Adam,
Others may know more than me, but it was not uncommon for Philco to run out of cabinets and use one for a newer model or use up older cabinets on a newer model prior to switching up to the planned new cabinet.

It does not surprise me that this radio performs well. The Audio Output Stage is a Class B push-pull with triode connected 42 tubes, and is rated for 10 Watts, certainly high power for a table radio of that era.

Good luck with this, it is a really nice radio.

"Do Justly, love Mercy and walk humbly with your God"- Micah 6:8
"Let us begin to do good"- St. Francis

Best Regards, 

MrFixr55
