I have a small one-tube (regen?) radio that I picked up at an antique
store a long time ago. Now I am cleaning out the shop and would like
to see it go to a good home (to be repaired or for parts).

It has a nice bakelite vernier dial with 4.5:1 ratio. The main scale
is 0-100, with a subsidiary scale from 100-0. Numbers are black on
ivory background, nice and crisp. The main tuning cap looks like 50
pF or so.

There is a five-pin tube socket (no tube, don't know what it was),
bakelite or similar material, a six-pin bakelite coil socket with one
phenoloc brown coil form having three coils wound on it, a Wirco
bakelite RF choke (mounted on a base, looks like a small tube, and a
large mica capacitor on which is mounted a fuse clip sort of
arrangement holding a grid leak resistor in a glass ampoule, marked
"Tobe Vacuum Ticon, Loewe Leak, Germany, 9M." All these are mounted
on a piece of wood of uncertain species, probably arborae peachcratia.
On the bottom side there is another tuning capacitor about 100-200
pF, a rheostat, a ceramic thingy with metal top and bottom that were
chromed but it is flaking off (this has a knob sticking through the
chassis, won't turn), toggle switch, and a bathtub capacitor of some
kind. Ther is space for A and B batteries whgich connect to binding
posts. The box is steel, unpainted, not rusted much if at all. Two
binding posts connect the antenna and ground. Knobs are in perfect
condition, but no labels on them.

Will consider any offer made the next week or two. You pay shipping,
but it's not that heavy.

Not to this news group. Text only please. ;-)
However, you can post them to
alt.binaries.pictures.radio

Or if you have a web site, you can upload them there, and post a
link to them here.

Jeff

You could email me one.

The place to post them is in the alt.binaries.pictures.radio group.
I was curious to see if it was a homebrew or a commercial (kit?)
radio.
