Custom Built Radio in Atwater Kent Cabinet + Horn Speaker
|
item #1778
|
This is a Radiotiques exclusive which you will not find anywhere else.
It is a one of a kind custom built 5 tube radio chassis that was fitted into an Atwater Kent Model 30 receiver. It came from the basement workshop of the late Ed Duda, legendary Chief engineer and amplifier designer of Lafayette Radio Corp. I was lucky to attend an auction and purchase some of his personal collection. The chassis uses the same front controls as the original AK receiver so it has 3 tuning condensors ganged together and turned with one tuning knob calibrated from 1-100. The on/off switch is the same as in the original AK. On the rear are inputs for a speaker, external antenna (it has an internal loop stick), and an RCA jack to plug in a phono, IPOD, MP3 etc. The AK wooden cabinet is in great shape too. Also for sale is an original AK horn speaker (Model H) in great shape that has a PM speaker mounted inside the horn (another Radiotiques exclusive). It was done in such a way that it can be completely removed by the same 3 screws that hold the horn to the throat of the speaker.base. Buy the speaker for an additional $50 (not old separately at this price). The whole system has an exquisite 1920's look and works fine.

AtwaterKent 48
|
item #1766
|
I am selling another radio from the collection of Edward Duda, Chief Design Engineer for Lafayette Electronics. He had a huge shop in his basement and made many custom radios and amplifiers. I was lucky to attend the auction of his estate and bought some nice stuff. The AK 48 I am offering here was completely rebuilt and restored by him. He added a solid state power supply that he fit into the case alongside the original chassis (this was originally a battery set). The insides of the radio are immaculate, The radio works. There are 5 matching Hytron VT 67's (they are similar to a 30 tube) and a 31 output tube. The 2 front controls on the right (rheostats) are a bit sensitive to set because you are adjusting the RF and detector tube circuits. Also, he added a small pot that provides a fine control of the filament voltages inside the cabinet. The wood case is in great condition with the brass AK emblem on the outside and the serial number plate on the inside. The front is also beautiful. This radio has a great deal of provenance to anyone who collects vintage radios, or has memories of Lafayette Electronics. If you do a Google search of Edward Duda/Lafayette Electonics you can find pictures of his shop and some of his collection in the basement.

Old 1940's Radio Batteries
|
item #1760
|
I have accumulated many old radio batteries. They came from portable AC/battery radios from the 1940's. Some were sold by the radio maker (Philco) and others by the battery maker (9 lives, Everready). Various voltages and shapes (A, B and C batteries). They are great for rebuilding with modern batteries or just for display. The batteries tend to be heavy but several can be combined into USPS flat rate shipping boxes to save on mailing costs.
