Not much info

Precious little info found on this set Gary. I scanned my research info, my collection of SAMS (which needs organized) and used both Google and Yahoo! search engines for something similar....nada. Capehart was pretty active in table radios, consoles, TVs and later, some fairly elaborate systems.

Like other popular AM/FM (88 to 108 MHz FM dial) table sets, I'd guess a build date anywhere from 55-63...or even later, although the styling suggests a 1950s build. I'd just keep looking; sellers offering period adverts on eBay can often ID something not too common, eBay auctions, even a search alert. After you ID it, you can find the SAMS to fit tubes and get it working. I'd say it’s worth the trouble; that's a very handsome radio.
