Woo Hoo! 1939 Majestic 130 Portable Radio

Nice!

I have one in red that is really a "strong station only" set... perhaps there is some hope for it yet. What is the model number if the GE under the meter of your "Vomax"? I am missing the tag on mine. That 13.5 volt battery with the 9 volt tap (#239) that it uses might be fun for you!

Yeah, that's a 677. And I have the repro 239 made up--just have to figure out how to fill it with power.

That is really one odd-ball set, but I mean that in a good way! Almost everything about that radio is fascinatingly different; the cabinet, the 3 tube chassis, and even the knobs. Thanks for sharing....
