An early TRF set followed me home...anyone know what it is?
Found this guy sitting in someone's trash when I was doing some errands the other day. It's a '20s TRF set with a mix of 301, 201, and possibly 112 tubes. Included a few spares although I don't know if they're any good.
Anyone have info on this ancient beast? The tuners are from Chas. Freshman and the tube sockets are from Frost Radio. No other brand markings anywhere. The electronics seem good quality, the cabinet in pretty good, but some of the fine Assembly is a little wonky. Kit maybe?
The little rheostat in the upper left isn't connected to anything. On the front panel it also has three 1/4" jacks and a smaller jack or connection I can't ID.
