Tested and the clock and sound works. Produced static, and the clock did turn. See the cracking on the bottom. This is a rare piece. I can’t find any other units for sale of this model, late alone the fact that it is pink.

Vintage Courier Royale CB Radio Tube Radio withMicrophone Clean READ DESCRIPTION

This is very rare and hard to come by, especially in working condition. This is for a vintage good working Courier Royal tube type CB radio. Just received from an estate sale. For a tube-type radio of this vintage, most major capacitors are bad. They will go bad just sitting on the shelf. All my other vintage radios are posted here, all do not work because of mostly bad capacitors. Oddly, this radio is working fine. Either the caps have repaired or they are still OK for some reason. This is my first. Sensitivity is good as I was picking up skip on Ch. 11, without an antenna. With a 30 inch wire, I was picking up all kind of stations. Note: The first picture of the watt meter shows 4-watts keyed down. The second picture shows 5-watts modulated. This is better than solid-state radios today. I did not tune it up or make any adjustments. This radio is very unique as it has a mechanical filter for exceptional receive selectively in a crowded RF environment. Perhaps it will put out more with proper antenna loading adjustment made. This has plenty of good audio and all meter’s work. This comes with power cord and mic. This radio is very clean with no major scratched. If this has not been reconditioned, I would suggest that you do so.

Vintage ART DECO 1938 RCA VICTOR 5Q55 Table Top Bakelite Tube Radio READ
vintage
Comments Off
This item is a vintage RCA “New Yorker” Model 5Q55 walnut bakelite tube table radio from approximately 1938. Design: It features a molded cabinet designed by John Vassos. It does turn on but does radio does not connect. (With the cords being exposed it was probably a poor choice to plug it in to test it, but I did it anyway). It is highly recommended to replace the electrical wiring before plugging it in again, it could be dangerous. This radio will require some work, wiring and such to get it working again. The body is in excellent condition though. It is a beautiful piece! There are some white paint speckles on the top, I was able to remove a few of them with a damp rag very carefully, but there are still a few dots there. I just got tired and didn’t do the rest, sorry! Dimensions: Approximately 13.5″ wide, 9.3″ tall and 8.7 deep, and weighs 15 pounds & 1 oz. Please see photos for more details and thanks for looking!

VTG Rare Blaupunkt Granada 3D 2220 Tube Radio TESTED WORKING READ DESCRIPTION

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.
