A Philco 42-321, code 121 radio that has a meters scale and only 2 knobs in front, is it a shortwave? The meters scale runs opposite of the AM scale (low-high, high-low numbering).

Thanks!

That is a standard Dial with no shortwave. That was common to have the meters frequency printed on the dial also.

Thanks! It had me fooled for a bit. Maybe that was the maker's intent.
