    Description

    Listen to the radio during a power outage in style! This antique tombstone radio runs on a 6 volt battery! New battery is included! Also uses 2 AA batteries for tube bias, which are included as well (small black case on the back of the chassis). It's a 6 tube radio with 3 bands.
    As with all my radios, the chassis has been completely gone through. The tuner was removed, cleaned, and re-lubricated. All capacitors (except a few Mica) have been replaced, as well as all out-of-tolerance resistors, and all bad wiring. The tubes were checked, and any weak ones were replaced. The radio was then re-aligned to factory specifications, and receives stations all across the dial.
    The cabinet was stripped down to the original patina, re-stained, and various shades of Mohawk toner were applied. It was then given 10 coats of nitro-cellulose lacquer, and finally, after 2 weeks of curing, it was hand-rubbed with natural beeswax.
    The radio measures 13" wide, 10" deep, 18 1/2" tall, and weighs 25 lbs.
    Disclaimer: Because the radio itself, and the mechanical features (dials and dial related parts, push buttons, tubes, etc.) are over 80 years old, I cannot guarantee their functionality. Everything will work, however, when I ship it, unless otherwise specified. But any future malfunctions or failures are beyond my control. As such, I can only guarantee that the radio worked before it was shipped. No other guarantee applies, and no refunds will be given.
