FOR AUCTION IS THIS HIGHLY COLLECTIBLE NICE AIRCASTLE TOMBSTONE AM/SW EARLY 1930'S RADIO THAT HAS BEEN ELECTRICALLY RESTORED! NOTE THAT AIRCASTLE WAS THE HOUSE BRAND OF SPIEGEL, THE FAMOUS CHICAGO CATALOG SERVICE. WE'VE SERVICED AND RESTORED RADIOS AND TVS FOR 50 + YEARS AND ARE PROUD OF HOW THIS PRETTY RADIO PERFORMS. IT HAS BEEN GONE THROUGH COMPLETELY AND THE RESULT IS A RADIO THAT WILL PERFORM WELL FOR YEARS TO COME. THE CABINET IS NOT PERFECT BUT IT HAS BEEN CLEANED AND POLISHED, AS HAS THE DIAL BEZEL. THE ONLY REAL FLAW IS ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE CABINET-A SCRATCH (CAN BE SEEN IN ONE OF THE PICTURES). THIS IS NOT REAL NOTICEABLE AND CAN BE FIXED. SEE THAT THERE IS A LOT OF STYLE IN ITS CABINET, ESPECIALLY WITH ITS ORIGINAL KNOBS!WITH ITS LARGE ELECTRODYNAMIC SPEAKER, THIS RADIO SOUNDS GREAT. PLUS, THERE IS A TONE CONTROL. AND A NEW DIAL LAMP THAT SHINES THROUGH THE CLEAR LENS AND DIAL SCALE. I AM ABLE TO PICKUP SHORT WAVE STATIONS DURING THE DAYTIME. ON THE AM DIAL, I CAN PICK UP A VERY WEAK STATION IN ANOTHER TOWN THAT FEATURES BIG BAND MUSIC. ALL TUBES HAVE BEEN TESTED AND THEY'RE EITHER NEW OR CHECK 100%.. ALSO-IT'S BEEN RECAPPED AND ALIGNED FOR MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE. THIS IS A 6 TUBE SET THAT FEATURES AN EXTRA STAGE OF RF AMPLIFICATION. THIS FEATURE ENABLES YOU TO PICK UP THE WEAK STATIONS IN YOUR AREA. -READ OUR REVIEWS-WE read more
