Westinghouse was one of the founding owners of the Radio Corporation of America (RCA) in 1919, and in 1926 RCA went onto establish the National Broadcasting Company (NBC), a group of 24 radio stations that made up the first radio network in the United States.

At first, the RCA brand was applied to radio receivers manufactured by Westinghouse and General Electric. RCA saw the potential for a nationwide network, and in 1926 the first national radio network dubbed the National Broadcasting Company (NBC) was created. Radios popularity in the U.

Restored, Near mint Old Antique Zenith Vintage C845 Tube Radio Works Perfect

Hello, thank you for your interest before continuing, please click. On the top right of the page your homepage will show any new vintage radio listings I offer. Also, please look at the VIDEO DEMO below to see this beautiful radio in action! In Zenith Advertising, this radio design could have come right off the set of AMCs Mad Men. It has a Phono Jack input that can be used to play music through your. IPod/MP3/ or Smartphone I tested it and it works great! The Zenith C845 Black wood finish models (known as Ebony) are quite rare the maple, walnut, and blond versions are much more common. This one has a fully restored black wood finish and it looks amazing. It would be perfect as a daily player – they’re built like tanks. For those unfamiliar with Zeniths C845 radio it is legendary with Zenith collectors – the sound is truly amazing you have to hear it to believe it. With two loud speakers (an 8 Woofer and 3.5 electrostatic Tweeter), this radio represented the pinnacle of achievement of Zeniths High Fidelity sound efforts. The C845 was the first in a series of almost identical models that spanned from 1959 through 1967, before Zenith finally went to Solid State printed circuit radio technology. The C845 was followed in 1964 by the H845 and X338, then finally the model X337 in 1967. Many collectors of these radios usually have more than one in their stable due to their quality construction, hand wiring, and superb performance. Rarely are these models found in this good.
