Atwater Kent 225 Riders?
 
Anyone happen to have one? The caps in this thing are soaked through with acid, and I can't read the suckers....

Thanks!

This?

Parts list, not a schematic...

Yeah, that's all I could find as well.

Since the parts list is for both the 225 and the 435, have you looked at the schematics for the two types of Model 435 on Riders Vol. 7 A-K pages 7-37 and 7-38?

Can't seem to locate that one either. Just a parts list.

There seem to be many "purchasable" items that list it, but I have no direct experience with them. Google books and their 'wildcat' search function can team up to point you to traditional library resources, if your request here fails.

Hopefully you've looked on the bottom, or inside the back, for a possible factory-issued schematic? Don't know for sure whether AK did that.

Is this of any help?

Here's a link to the schematic for the Model 435 "2nd type."

Thanks!

It looks like one of the last A-K radios. Uses octal and UX base tubes. Is the 225, a five tube set? Riders shows a 255, which seems similar. Model 435 is probably the right schematic, both found in Riders VI. As previously stated, parts list is in Riders VII.

It's a 5 tube radio, but someone must have cleaned the damn tubes with a chemical agent at some point and wiped ALL of the numbering off them, with the exception of the 6F6. Even a metal octal has nothing on it......

That schematic worked perfectly. A couple minor differences, but all in all, it did the job and the radio is now playing nicely :)

Thanks for your help, everyone!
