I have found very little about this piece. Made by Marti Electronics it is a model 25C, I believe it is a transmitter. The tag also reads M-25C / MR-30 / 150-170. 15 vacuum tubes in the unit. All look to be original vintage, I see many of the Bugle boy ones installed. It has a Turner Carbon Microphone attached. This came from a local radio station. This unit was hooked up on a rack mount. Now I have no way to test so I have to sell it as I found it. Pretty cool old piece. Please check over the photos. Thank you for looking.

The Air-Way Type F is a rare, four-tube regenerative radio receiver manufactured in 1923 and 1924 by the Air-Way Electric Appliance Corp. The company, which made vacuum cleaners, briefly entered the radio market during the early 1920s. Production: The Type F model was made in both 1923 and 1924, though its primitive and compact design did not hold up well over time. Circuit: The receiver uses RF amplification rather than regeneration, as Air-Way did not have a license for the Armstrong regenerative circuit. Performance: These sets were not known for their performance, with one contemporary report noting that they “acquired a reputation for picking up more dust than radio stations”. Tuning was reportedly not very selective or sensitive. Known variants: At least two versions were produced, one with two rheostats and another with three. Collector’s item: Due to their rarity, the Air-Way Type F is a highly sought-after vintage radio. Power supply: The radio is an early battery-powered set, and specialized “ARBEE II type” power supplies may be required to run them. AI responses may include mistakes.
