Mom's cousin runs auctions in a small country town. Nobody was interested in a
dozen or so radios and since I have been working on restoring one of cousin's
radios, she called on me to get them outta the warehouse. I came home with a
dozen radios, with 2 more consoles yet to be picked up. One of them I can find no
information on at all.
Shurtone on the emblem on front and on the paper label on the chassis it says
Model 576. It's 5 tube AM 120v. No tubes in the sockets to give any clues there
and no schematic.







You'll find more info on it under it's more commonly seen brand name, Musicaire,
model 576.

Thank you, Jim!
Armed with that information, I have found a schematic & info as a Detrola 576. Here
is where I found the explanation of why the name on the cabinet is not Detrola:

Great news and a great website. Congrats!
