Scored a 38-690 today

What a great deal. It would have been cheap at twice the price! I bought one in similar condition earlier this year, paid more than twice what you paid and am very happy with the radio.

As cool as the 38-690 is though, I've always wondered why Philco didn't put a tuning indicator in that radio?
