Looks like a good find! What kind of shape are the innards in? Pretty
good, or a lot of work to get going?



So far I have not tested the Bakelite radio but the guy I got it from
said it was working.

The R-100 will need some work but basically it does function,
the other two will need work. One had the oscillator coil
removed...though it was included, I assume it to be bad.
I have not looked through my junk box yet...

This will be a winter project and now that I'm retired I don't care of
it takes me 20 years to restore them.


LOL, sounds like a good winter-time project. I'm envious - I wish I had
time to do similar things. I really enjoy restoring old gear.

I'd love to find an old A****er Kent with the cabinet in decent
condition and the electronics repairable. It would go well with the
Edison cylinder phonograph and other antiques in our living room.
