I have an Admiral AM FM tube radio in almost excellent condition,
probably from the late 50's to the mid 60's that I am trying to identify the model number and/or chassis number, as I need to get a schematic/troubleshooting and /or alignment information for troubleshooting purposes. The model number was on a tag attached to the bottom of the radio that has detoriated with age and this information is missing. Here is all the information that I have found and/or identified: (Note: I have pictures of thr radio that I can email) Mfg.: Admiral (Made in Japan for Admiral) Serial Number: 522406 Chicago 47, Illinois Inside the radio, the case is stamped on the top section: (this looks to be a test or final inspectors stamp as it is in black ink) T 40.11.1 WATABE Information that is still visible on the tag located on the bottom of the radio: Tubes listed: 12AV6 - 1 each 12BA6 - 2 each 12BE6 - 1 each 17EW8 - 1 each 50EH5 - 1 each Also, on the tag is stamped N40D440-282 The radio is in a wooden case, has 2 speakers (each being 6.4 ohms, 1-1/2 watts and are wired in parallel) one on each side with the controls and station dial in the center section. The controls are to the right and the station dial is to the left. The station dial and controls are vertical with the controls as follows: Has 4 Control Knobs: (vertical order listed top to bottom) (Off/On/Volume) (Tone) (AM/FM/AFC/Phono) (Tuning) The layout of my radio is similar to Admiral Models YH611 with chassis number 6M4 and YHC631 or YHC641 with chassis number 6M4A. The main differences that I can identify is that in these units the controls are shown horizontal on the bottom of the chassis with the AM antenna shown on the right side of the chassis. The radio I have the controls are in the center on a separate bracket located in the middle of the chassis and are mounted vertically. The AM antenna is mounted with a clear plastic standoff which slides over the top of the large capacitor located in the center of the chassis. My radio is wired the same as the models I listed above, all hard wiring......no printed circuit boards. On the back there is a Phono input jack as well as FM antenna terminals. The dimensions of the radio a 14 inches wide by 5.5 inches deep by 8 inches tall. This is all the information that I have found or identified; any help in identifying the model number and/or chassis number of this radio is greatly appreciated. |
