Hello everyone, I'm writing you today from a cabin in the Smoky Montains of Eastern Tennesse in Pigeon Forge, TN near Dollywood.

Yesterday when I got here with my parents one of my relatives from Eastern Pennsylvania who knows I'm into restoring antique radios gave me a what I'm assuming is a late 1940s vintage Montgomery Wards "Airline" AM Only AA6 radio that is almost all original except for some of the tubes and some damage to the speaker grille and speaker, and the two mounting pins that helped hold the back cover on are missing, other than that it's in very good shape yet.

Unfortunately part of the model number sticker is missing from the back of the radio, the only part of the model number that remains is 84WG- and the rest of it is missing from there, I looked on the Beitmans site and from what I could see, the "84" dates the radio to about 1949 and the "WG" refers to who made the unit for Montgomery Wards (in this case "WG" refers to Wells-Gardner) but other than that I have no idea which model this unit is, and looking at all of the units covered by Beitman's they were all miniature tubes or miniature and octal tubes but the one I have is strictly all octal tubes of the 12V and 35V variety.

I was trying to think of the name of the website that can be used to figure out a radio's model number by its tube lineup but I can't remember the name of that website.

Any help would be appreciated.
