Two Craigslist Finds

[jwharris]

I was browsing craigslist in Pgh the other night and came across a guy selling "two old 30s radios." I wasn't sure what they were in the photo but I emailed him and set up to look at them earlier in the day before work. I went and picked them up yesterday and they are amazing.

The first is a Truetone D1170B with an AM radio and phonograph. This is supposedly different than the D1170 so I have not been able to locate a schematic.





The second radio is a Philco Jr Model 80C from 1932. The cabinet is in really great shape and the guy even had it plugged in and picking up stations with a clear, crisp sound. The cord has seen better days but after a recap and cleaning it should be good to go.
