In Reply to: Anyone On 'Tubes Asylum' Own Any "Vintage" Tabletop or Console Tube Radios??? posted by john c. on July 3, 2001 at 16:00:24:
Although my movers made a big crack on the base of the bakelite case, my 1957 Blaupunkt Bari-II tabletop radio still sings after all these years of moving along with me.I have a big "mammoth" floor-standing Westinghouse multiband floor radio sitting at the corner of my lower floor living room, and a 1943 RCA tabletop radio sitting right next to my workstation in my sleeping room. I got a Philips 1961 multiband w/ FM sitting on the floor which I occasionally play FM station with.
My dad's 1935 RCA "cathedral" radio still sits on top of the shelf, waiting to be restored. Meanwhile my DeForest tabletop AM/SW radio sitting parted with the cabinet waiting to be varnished. The electronics section has been completely restored though...
Quest ;^>
p.s. I'm a lousy carpenter so plse do not ask me how my radios look.
