Just acquired a late 1940s Magnavox AM/SW/Phono Console Today!

The radio should work better than almost anything new. Possably a LOT better!
You can play LP's. It may have a flip over needle so be sure its set to 33.
I would not play any records of value on it.
BTW if you look for manuals you need chassis numbers. They are on
major assy's TT, radio, amp etc. Newer ones on little tags stuck anywhere.
Dont loose them, they love to jump off.

Thanks! I know I had a relative that used to work for Magnavox in Fort Wayne years ago.
