That explains it. Terry is an old friend of mine, and I have a feeling that "Lew" was the late Lewis Owens, who was a Lexington resident and antique radio collector.

Did you find your 51/4 combination at the Huntington meet? From the photos I've seen online, it looks like their meets/auctions seem to bring out some nice sets. I am going to try to attend at least one of their meets next year.
