[NJARC] Marti Radio West Orange NJ E-Bay

[Ray Chase]

Very unique radio by a New Jersey company that is difficult to find 
information about.  I have one of these, got it in very dirty condition 
and w/o tubes but I have tubes for it.  Unfortunately the tuning 
mechanism has some pot metal parts ergo it doesn't budge, same as the 
one on E-bay therefore buyer beware.  Mine has a better condition 
cabinet and I have a nice spare cabinet as well.  Still working on mine, 
don't know if I'll ever get it to tune.  Tubes are Kellogg 401's, early 
AC tubes with filament connector on the top. These tubes with good 
filaments usually sell for around $25.00 ea.  Would really like to learn 
more about this NJ co., they made the Martian crystal set as well.  
Happy hunting.  PS: it's a TRF set.
