[NJARC] Very unusual Transistor radio :-) 1930's

[Joe Cro]

Hello Al,
            Yes, this guy did some real research. Those are Thermionic glass transistors that are not of the cold cathode variety. I would guess the 9V transistor radio battery would have fit somewhere in the compartment. It looks like all the transistors could be 1N01A's!

It looks like the loop antenna is missing which would be a good barganing point if one wanted to buy this thing from the seller. 

Regarding dating the thing, would you say it was made sometime between say 1968-1975? Maybe a little older.........

Regards,
            Joe Cro N3IBX

  Yes, those are glass transistors.  They have pilot lights inside so you can tell that they are working properly.
