"I also have a big Philly Tasman cabinet. Not sure if it's one of the 4 you mentioned. It's odd its so rare as it was a free cabinet one year as a christmas bonus in their ads."

"Very interesting Kent! I did lots of trips to Saanich over the years, for SCUBA diving. And looking at the maps, I visited the water reservoir near where his house would have been!"
"Bruce (& all) -
The house in BC was at 3441 Mayfair, Saanich.
The Chicago house was at 640 Linden Ave, Highland Park, IL. Again, this house is no longer there.

"Bruce -
Why yes, I do have those :-)
The home in Chicago is gone, the street has been moved slightly and all new homes in that area. So...not much to look at there.
I will have to dig up his Victoria address - I'll look tonight. There…"

"This has turned into quite an historical and intriguing discussion. I am glad we have captured it here on Kent's site for future radio researchers."
"Is the AW 27 chassis about the same size as the chassis used in the Quaranta? I was unclear on that but if it is indeed the same size that supports the use-them-up theory."
"A nice thread from 2017 about the AW-27 history. I plan to start listening to my set this weekend and wondered if there has been any new findings in the past 4 years on the AW-27's ?"

Finally put it all back in the original early 1930's Capehart 300 cabinet. Philly chrome is super nice and plays like a million bucks thanks to Bill L for his electrical restoration

Did you mean the Tasman with the 16 ? That's the one I was inquiring about vs the Tasman you have with the Philly in it size wise/

Hello Bruce,...the Scott 16 in the Warrington cabinet is in an Imperial (AW/23) sized cabinet. I don't know why this is, as this little chassis would surely fit in an Allwave 15 sized cabinet easily.

Thanks Bruce for your comments,....at some point i'll have to get the Scotts organized and on display properly. I have sets in my garage that need to be brought out and displayed and admired like they should be as well. I really like your 16 in the Warrington cabinet.

Thank you very much for your reply and info. I do recall that back in about 1976 while getting the set operating I was required to buy four 2A3 tubes . As I recall they were well over $ 200.00 at that time and I was required to wait for a sufficient (months) period until the manufacturer had a sufficiently sized order before he would produce them. Actually the set hasn't been turned on since that time. I was reasonably young and footloose at the time so I loaned the set to a local technical museum where it sat on display, for 10-15 years. It was probably the best thing I could have done or I would have likely lost it.
Do you have any idea what the set is worth?

- Hi Bruce,
Thanks for the welcome. I am looking forward to being a menber of the group. I do not have any unique or rare Scotts but do have several from an AW12 two dial to Philharmonics.
