Philco console questions
Ok, I am very short on info but hopefully someone is going to know what I am talking about. If ound an old Philco console. It is roughly 3'-6 tall, 3'-6 deep, and 2'-0 wide. It has 4 long legs,about 2'-0 tall, which makes the console portion about 1'-6 deep. It has gold lemay type covering over the speakers. It had a tone control, a volume control, a function selector, and a tunning control. The funtions where ph, I forget, and ss. The dial was horizontal and the top markings were for AM and the bottom markings were for ss. The ss band had some markings at different points like a battle ship or a microphone or a telephone, etc. The console also had a lid which was hinged on the backside. Opening it reveld a turntable. The turntable had a metal plinth that was supported by springs. The platter had felt mat. The spindle was very odd and was bent wierd. I could not find a model number. Looking from the bottom there was a tag, but I could not read it due to lack of light and I did not have a flashlight. There was a tag that said to remove the bottom cover to replace the tubes. ONe last thing, the speaker looked to be about 4x10.
Ok, that's all I know. Anyone have any ideas? And what the heck is the SS band?
Last question, it powers on, but I get no sound. Is it worth fixing up?
