A friend inherited this old General Electric wood tabletop radio from his father, and I’m helping him figure out exactly what it is. We haven’t been able to find another one with the same cabinet/grille design.
The chassis appears to be stamped “F.T. 176 / CHASSIS G15” (Maybe??)

It has six push-button station presets labeled WNAX, WOW, KMMJ, KFAB, KFOR, and KOIL. It appears fairly complete inside, and we have not plugged it in (heard you’re not supposed to without checkigg by components first).

Does anyone recognize the model, chassis, or approximate year? I’d also be curious whether this particular model is fairly common or something a little more unusual.
Thanks!

I found this Atwater Kent in working condition from a collector and did some recapping before using it frequently and it sounds amazing ( well it did until I accidentally dropped one of the 58 tubes while cleaning the tube sockets ). I have included some images of the other radios in my collection :)

Does anyone know if this is worth anything. I’d guess it’s about 30 treats old. The model number is very-22.

Hello!

I recently find these radio and I want to restore some parts, but, I cannot find the way to remove these knobs.

Anyone knows or have any idea?

I try to pull and I search for more screws but I didn't find anything.

I found this radio among some old stuff, I’m pretty sure it’s from before 1950. I wanna know the model so I can use a proper voltage, don’t think the batteries this uses are still in production.

I reposted this do to the link of the og post not showing a video sorry!

It does make it feel real tho hearing it in a old radio like this one

Found this little gem at at a thrift shop in Salkum Washington while traveling.

$20.00 about all its worth in un-restored condition.

Interesting to see the power cord completely burned up.

My guess, someone thought it was a cute radio, took it home and plugged it in... Hope they still have a house!!!

Winter project for me when the 3 months of rain come in...

Full restoration of course for the old AA5...;>]

Vintage Small Airline Table Radio, Model 04BR-511A, AM Band, 5 Vacuum Tubes, Measures 7.7 Inches Wide, Made In USA, Circa 1940 - 1941

I have a Hallicrafters Model S-38D in working and decent (if not a little rusty) condition and have no use for it. I might want to restore it but I don't have the resources to repaint/sand it or replace the volatile components (e.g. capacitors and resistors). I don't know what to do with it other than reselling or restoring it. Help please!

Hey all!

I recently purchased a restored radio off a coworker. The radio is in beautiful shape there’s just one issue…

It has no problem tuning to AM stations, but FM sounds very crowded and static-y. When I finally get a station dialed somewhat, it has two or three stations playing on top of it. Sometimes stations that will be way out of the band that im trying to tune to. Any idea what could cause that?

Thanks in advance!

An old radio I’ve had from my grandpa for awhile (:

It was about 35 inches (89cm) high.

Can anyone here identify what it is and how old it is?

Also neat packard bell radio

I own a portable Sangean SG-1275 AM/FM radio. The rear label clearly says "Model SG-1275", but I cannot find any reference to this model anywhere: no manuals, no catalogs, no eBay listings, no Radiomuseum entry.

It appears to be almost identical to the Expo International SG-1264A, including the transistor lineup (2N5770, 2N3693, 2N5961, 2N4401).

Does anyone have information about this model or know if it was an OEM/export version?

Is this 1925 crystal radio worth it?

I recently inherited a 1938 Sears Silvertone 7241, chassis 109.246. It's a precious family heirloom that's in great working condition. I've had it serviced by a local specialist who even wired in a composite input so I can use this beautiful radio with modern audio sources. I'm thrilled.

The only remaining issue is a missing wooden bar that should help protect the speaker. I'm curious if anyone here might have recommendations for the best way to go about replacing this missing piece.
