UNBUILT Knight RANGER vintage vacuum 5 tube AM radio receiver electronic kit set

UNBUILT Knight RANGER vintage vacuum 5 tube AM radio receiver electronic kit set

Listing has multiple photos, scroll down to see them all. This was a working Knight Ranger radio, that we disassembled and refurbished back to its original kit form. The parts were carefully removed, and all applicable components were cleaned. But have NEVER listed a Knight Ranger before! The kit comes with a COMPLETE set of new and NOS (New Old Stock) carbon composition resistors, and a COMPLETE new capacitor set. You are building the kit with a new set of parts, just like the original! The original capacitors were salvageable, and are also included, see appropriate photo. The case, chassis, and several other components were immersion cleaned. Overall, the case is in above average cosmetic condition, compared to several other units we have seen. It has two major cracks and sections missing on the back corners, see photos. Since these are on the back, they are not very noticeable. The case also has typical wear and marks you would expect. The case had some cosmetic work done on it (marker touch-up), because this work was removed when cleaned. You can see the difference in the before and after photos. The case could obviously be touched up again. The dial faceplate has some fading to it. The speaker grill has some discoloration, but only where it was not covered by the grill, so you don’t’notice it’. The manual is a photocopy. The manual is only four pages long, and NOT detailed step-by-step assembly like other kits. It includes a parts list, wiring diagram, schematic and assembly / operating notes. This kit is recommended for the advanced builder. The radio was in operating condition before disassembly, but no guaranties can be made to its operation after it is reassembled. It is assumed that the unit(s) will be installed and operated by qualified personnel. Not for sale to minors. See our other listings for more Radio, Electronic and other RARE and UNIQUE items.
