Acquired an Unknown model number Stromberg-Carlson Radio from the 1930s Today!

[vortalexfan]

Hello Everyone, today I took an hour trip up to Schoolcraft, Michigan to meet someone from Facebook Marketplace to buy a 1930s Vintage Stromberg-Carlson Tombstone Radio that I don't know the model number on because the model number label is partially missing, and the factory inspection tag that was on the original cloth cord is also missing the model number data as well.

Its a high tube count AM Only model with an RF section and Hi-Fi Capability it has 10 tubes and push-pull 2A5 tubes for the audio.

The cabinet is overall in really good shape but the chassis is pretty dirty, and the phenolic tuning dial is broken and will need to be replaced.

Do any of you know what model of radio this is?

Sorry I meant to say Stewart-Warner not Stromberg-Carlson, I get those two brands mixed up...

Anyways I'll look this model up in my Rider's Books.

A little bit of an update on this radio: I was able to recap this radio but unfortunately even after an IF Realignment this radio has p*ss poor performance for the quality of the radio (I would expect an 11 Tube radio to be picking up stations like gang busters) but unfortunately I can barely get this radio to pick up 3 local stations and very faintly pick up some distant stations, and then when the radio is tuned below 950 kC the radio dial is pretty much deaf, and the only thing I can think of as to why this might happening is because I've spotted a damaged winding on the SW Detector Coil (which I realize that should only affect the SW Band but with this radio's SW Band being partially driven off the AM Band it might affect the AM Band spread slightly) and then the Antenna Coil broke one of its terminals off of the coil-form and I think that might be part of the reason why the radio is hardly picking anything up on the AM Band especially if one of the coil windings broke off of the terminal when it broke away from the coil-form.

Any ideas as to how one might be able to repair these two coils, and or where to locate some replacement ones?

Thanks in advance.
