Westinghouse WR-8 "Columnaire" scored
I just picked this set up on the south side tonight. The seller actually had it powered up and playing when I arrived Nice to know the xfrmrs are good, but I never would have plugged it in without going over it first
It's filthy and the veneer is in rough shape, but it appears to be all original and unmolested. I'm not sure about that finish though. It's kind of a dull brown - not very attractive. It's very, very heavy. I'm guessing 90+ pounds It'll stay in the garage until I can round up some help. I'm not sure if the clock is working yet or if there should be glass over it. The speak is in rough shape. There are large tears in the cone and I have no idea how it should be covered. Cloth? Seems like a bad idea to point the speaker straight up accoustics-wise. Looks like one of the original wooden knob is missing. The chassis looks to be in good condition. Lots of nice, old Sylvania tubes with the green leaf label including some 245s. Filthy, but they clean up real nice. I really don't know anything about this model so any info or advice is much appreciated. Thanks! Bob More pictures here if you are interested.
