1949 DuMont RA-103D3 12" on Ebay
|
Someone mentioned this set over at antiqueradios.com
There was another on eBay a couple weeks ago, it went for pretty big bucks, $300+ I think. I have a cabinet for one of these that I use for a nightstand. |
I had two of these. Never really impressed me in the styling department.
|
Shoot I guess I shouldnt have passed up a sweet looking one at a Garage sale for 50 bucks :eek:

Question. Was FM commercially broadcasted in 1949? Thought I had read somewhere FM was a 50's thing starting in LA.

FM Stations
FM was being broadcast prior to WW-ll. The first licensed commercial station went on the air in 1941 but I believe that there were FM broadcasts before that. These stations were were on the old FM frequencies (41 - 50 MC I think). During the war the current freqencies were allocated. Several manufacturers came out with the new FM band radios in 1946.
