This RCA Radiola is in nice cosmetic condition for it’s age. The wooden case has some scuffs, scratches and nicks, but overall I’d say it’s been well cared for over the past 100 years. It currently has all tubes installed. The dials move smoothly, except the “STATION SELECTOR I” control. The knob turns, but the dial doesn’t move. We’ve made no attempt to test the radio. With over 1,000 items in our inventory and new items added daily, you’re sure to find what you need! WHAT’S INCLUDED IN THE SALE: You will only receive what is shown in the photographs.

Of Welwyn Garden City in the U. This is the TA AC mains version of the 152 (the TU was the AC/DC version). The AC mains voltage is jumper selected to accommodate the country exported to. It is a 5 tube receiver with three wave bands – broadcast and 2 shortwave covering 13-120 meters. It measures 14 x 7.5 x 8.5 inches and weighs 12lbs. It has terminals for an external antenna, wire and earth. It was DOA when we originally received it, the U404 rectifier tube was dead and the audio trans had an open primary. Not wanting to source a replacement from the U. (or Ukraine), we replaced the U404 with a more common 35Z3 tube. The receiver had a re-capping completed, any out of spec resistors and brittle wires replaced, a new AC switch/volume control and polarized power cord installed. An RF alignment was performed. The front panel has been painted. Just full disclosure that there are imperfections. The case is in good shape as the pictures show but there is a nick along the case edge under the tuning control. Previous to us possessing, someone had cut a hole in the bottom to access the band trimmers for adjustments. The perspex scale shows a couple of scribe marks made by a previous owner who was apparently too thick to remember where their favorite stations where on the dial. There is no rear cover (so enjoy the glow). Please review all pics and videos for appearance and condition. But, we know it’s another keeper. Additional details on the Murphy TA 152 can be found on RadioMuseum org website. I’ll also make available a 1949 guide to Murphy exports that details this receiver. Vintage tube radio reception differs greatly depending on it’s location, length of antenna, time of day (evening being best for SW) and amount of interference in or around the home. Many modern-day appliances and power supplies interfere with reception and cause static, distortion or buzzing. This is an 75 year old tube radio. Its reception, sound and performance should not be expected to compare to modern radios.
This Morrow receiver is in fair cosmetic condition for it’s age with some scuffs on the cabinet. The speaker is also missing two screws.
