VTG Rare Blaupunkt Granada 3D 2220 Tube Radio TESTED WORKING READ DESCRIPTION
rare
Comments Off
Radio powers on and all tubes work. They all light up and get warm (including fully functioning magic eye tube). FM reception is working as are both the tape inputs and ouputs, along with the aux speaker output. All 3 speakers are tested and working no issues. Have played all 3 at full volume with full clarity. I could not pull in on any of these and it seems to be a common with these. Cosmetically it’s in pretty nice shape I’ve highlighted all of the flaws. Out of the box this will pull in fm and work perfectly and also allow you to hook up an auxiliary source (including bluetooth) with the proper adapters and an auxiliary speaker should you want to. It’s a real gem. I don’t have time to diagnose the issues with the other frequency bands.

Rare Small Motorola Pixie Portable Tube Radio Vintage Early 1950s Model 45P1

Comments Off
Rare Small Motorola Pixie Portable Tube Radio Vintage Early 1950s Model 45P1. Untested because I don’t have the batteries to test it. The inside looks very clean, SEE PICTURES. Tube Lineup: It uses a high-performance superheterodyne circuit with four tubes: one miniature (1R5) and three subminiature tubes (1AH4, 1AJ5, and 1AG4) that are roughly the diameter of a pencil. Motorola Pixie Model 45P1, a notable piece of mid-century electronics history introduced around 1955. Despite its compact size, which resembles early transistor models, it is actually a portable tube radio using specialized subminiature vacuum tubes. Model Variants: The 45P1 designation refers specifically to the Ebony (Black) color variant. Audio: It features a 2-inch permanent magnet speaker protected by a gold-toned metal grille. Portability: Measuring approximately 6″ x 4″ x 2, it was one of the slimmest tube-based portables of its era before transistor technology became dominant. This radio is a “battery-only” set and requires two specific power sources to operate. “A” Battery (Filament): One standard 1.5V “C” cell battery. “B” Battery (Plate): A 45V DC battery. The back cover seems to be missing it’s hinges and a piece of the plastic is missing. That is why the price is lower then others listed.

Rare Vintage 1940 GE General Electric JB-630 Carryabout Portable Radio

Comments Off
This is a rare radio that you’re not going to see every day. It’s a 1940 carryabout portable radio that could be powered with line voltage or battery. It is not working and needs to be completely rewired and restored. I think it would also be a cool candidate to convert to a Bluetooth radio. It does have the previous owner’s name and rank written on the bottom right corner. Lt Colonel Fred H. I assume he’s the one that put the luggage decals on it during his travels giving this old radio a truly unique look as a piece of luggage. Measures approximately 14.7 x 10.6 x 5.1 inches and weighs approximately 14 pounds. Please see pictures for condition and let me know if you have any questions.
