Steve:
As far as I am able to determine, your BC-224-G (and for that matter, the
other fellows BC-224-H) does not stand out as anything particularly special.
You should take a look at the following site
(http://hereford.ampr.org/history/bc-...#_Toc438558117) for rather
detailed information regarding the 224 and 348 variants. I would guess that
the fellow who bid $1,475 will probably not follow through with payment.
These things are still very common, and although a very good one might fetch
several hundred dollars on e-bay (where they are always over bid), they are
probably not worth more than about $100-$150 in good (working) condition. I
suppose a "serious" collector might have a reason to want an H model - but
I'm at a loss as to why any knowledgeable person would bid that much.

I just saw this:

BC-224-H go for $1,475 and decided to dig out my radio.

I have a near perfect BC-224-G, SN 128, with matching dynamotor. When I

look
at the milList site, I notice that there are no details on the -G. Anyone
know more about this particular RCA version?

Thanks,

Steve.
