Simple... eye candy and the shutter dial is pretty cool. No bakelite block capacitors and the chassis is less crowded and easier to work on. While I agree that Philco radios are probably better engineered and may even sound better then Brand Z (but I suppose there are people that will debate that) the cabinet designs leave a little bit to be desired IMHO. But that didn't stop me from picking up the 37-116 a few weeks back. I'm looking forward to working on that one!
Any help I can offer on your 9S262 just let me know.
