| Art Deco styled compact four-tube regenerative which is far better on looks than performance. The cabinet is in beautiful condition with no loss of faux finish on the front or back. The top and sides were refinished with toners and topped with a light coat of enamel. It matches very well. New reproduction grille cloth and dial scale. This one took a lot of new parts. New volume control, OSC coil, all filter and paper capacitors, all out of tolerance resistors, line cord. It features a strong tested set of tubes. Despite all of the new components, there is a speaker rattle on strong stations that I was not able to eliminate. But it does receive all of my local stations with its wire antenna connected to an external source. Since the volume control is part of the antenna, the higher the volume the stronger the station comes in. They are finicky! This is a four-tube TRF circuit, utilizing early 1920's technology. Because of the primitive circuitry, my standard add-on 3.5mm cord could not be installed on this unit. Despite its performance short comings, it's still a beautiful radio that doesn't take up a lot of shelf space. 12-1/2"W x 8-1/2"H x 7-1/2"D. |
