Hello Guys! Thanks Ron for directing the owner looking for Philco repairs in Texas to my website. I just replied to a email from Rob in regards to restoring his 41-280. I am about 200 miles west of the DFW area, but will be happy to handle the full electronic restoration of this radio if Rob decides to proceed. I lived in the Dallas for many years, but relocated out of the traffic many yrs ago. UPS, Fedex, USPS is indeed a good link to me these days. For any repairs needed down here in Texas, on any of these old tube sets, I appreciate the references! Will get em' all electronically restored ( one at a time) as new, and stand behind my work 100%. Local Dallas stations KRLD 1080 kc, KLIF,etc. daytime, and many other Stations at night will sound Great through a fully restored Philco 41-280 indeed!
