• The 80 series models were referred to as "Philco Junior" and were inexpensive entry-level radios employing a superheterodyne circuit with a regenerative stage to increase gain in the absence of an IF amplifier stage. Model 80B is a cathedral (with low-cost flat front), 80C is a compact rectangular wooden tabletop model, 80P is a plug-in "portable," and there is also an 80 Colonial clock.
