    Notes
    Model 37-602C (1936-37) is the successor to model 602C (1936) and the model 54 series (1933-35), with a 5-tube AC/DC single band chassis in a compact table cabinet. For the 37-602C, the circuitry was updated to use octal tubes.
    An unusual design feature of the cabinet is that the front and back are basically identical in design.
