I have this type of radio installed in my p15. 

Does anyone have documentation on this type of radio. My manual does no show info on this unit. 

 

My dad says he can't recall the radio ever working. It would be great to get it going.

I believe what you have is an aftermarket/dealer installed radio as the factory version wouldn't have said "Philco" on the dial. From the outside, nearly identical to the OEM sets that Chrysler installed (and which were also Philco-built.) A very common set through the 40s. I've seen one similar in a Packard. Trivia: when Chrysler quit car production midway through the 1942 model year, Philco had a bunch of sets left over so they installed them in console cabinets for home use.
