Info wanted on Shurtone Model 576
 
1 Attachment(s)
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.

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:
