Hallicrafters T-506 scored

[bandersen]

I saw newhallone's post about an Admiral 20X122 for $30 up in Michigan. It's about 3 hrs away from me, but that's an awesome price so I contact the seller.

Someone beat me to it but... he has another set for sale. A Hallicrafters T-506. I grabbed a friend to keep me company and drove up to Grand Rapids, MI.
7 hours later, I'm finally back home

So here she is - pretty good shape. Just one knob missing - anyone have a spare ?


Needs a little refinishing, but nothing too bad.


Nice, original back. Except someone installed a 1/4" jack for an external speaker At least they did a clean job.


Ugh, more oxidized cadmium plating I think
The black knobs have gone all white with oxidation/mold too.


The chassis seems to be all original and unmolested other than that audio jack.


I popped the CRT in another set. My streak of good 7JP4s continues



Now for the icing on the cake. The seller has a bunch of old radios so I ask if he has any spare tubes for sale.
Yep, I got an 80 and 483 globe for my Sparton 931.
I just need one more 483 and I'm in business
