I just checked my 17 inch 1953 console... the 4 wires going to the speaker (10" or so) look exactly the same, but the speaker has a choke mounted to the frame. The UHF tuner is hardwired to the chassis on the console, while in the table model the power for the UHF is taken from an adapter plugged in to the audio output socket (with the tube plugged in on top of the adapter). Both sets are early production '53 models, and were purchased before Christmas 1952.
Thanks for the "heads up" on the weak straps! I will be careful If I ever have to mess with them.
