Bendix lowboy AM/FM/phono ?951W tagged chassis C1-9-N
 

NO sound a small hum though (maybe the PS). It all lights up like a Christmas tree and I swapped the 6V6GT from my Airline in for the 6V6GTA it has and that lights, so it's not the audio out and is also a good sign I have the correct ID (without any other means and the set's still in the cabinet). I went to Scott Harvey's Beitmans page and found there aren't a lot of Bendix AM/FM and phono combos for the picking there so it's a start.

It has the number NH 270664-1 and the phono changer appears to be 3 speed 33-45-78 with a reject/power switch and a variable speed switch marked STD. and SLOW with an approximately 8 inch felt lined platter. The needle may be the Fidelitone Supreme for which a round box with a built in brush was found inside along with a Duotone large round brush and a costume jewelry tennis bracelet (and a Betamax L-750 videocassette of all things)!

I didn't see anything burnt out, but I'll have to pull the all the radio tubes one by one and sub all those I have (the rest are miniatures and only the 6V6 is an older tube type) before I think of removing the chassis.

951W is in Sams #136 (1951) - I'll look when I get home.

It is probably not a tube problem...likely bad capacitors or an open resistor somewhere. All paper capacitors and electrolytics should be replaced.

Don't have the Sams but it's online here: http://www.nostalgiaair.org/PagesByM...8/M0002378.pdf

Thanks Tom! Now if it were only as easy to find that for a 1989 Scott RS 1000 suffix A stereo receiver...
