Walt's message:

    I am looking for a schematic for a GLF radio vintage 1948.  It was made 
for GLF by Phillips North America technical Division.  It has 9 tubes and 
is the only radio I ever saw or worked on that has/had loctal,octal, and 
seven pin tube sockets and tubes.The radio has only a GLF shield/logo on 
the front.  It is 18 inches wide, 11 inches high, and 7-8 inches 
deep.  I''ve repaired it and have it playing on am,fm, and the phono jack 
works.  If you could help me with information on this radio I would 
appreciate it very much.  The tubes are 5y3, 6v6,6s8,6be6,6ba6,7f8, and 
3  6au6's.  there is a 6e5 tuning eye.
