This radio is from my personal collection that I have for some time. This is a very rare 1936 Belmont model 686 series B with the “SKYROVER” metal name plate attached to the front of the radio. It has four original Wood knobs and they all function as required. There are three small oblong circles in the center and lower part of the dial face that indicate the band you have selected. Also, there is an additional smaller dial indicator I believe is for the finer tuner selection if needed. Not so sure about it but that makes sense to me. At any rate it works as well. The dial face and pointer are in excellent condition and the face looks wonderful when lite up in a darkened room. The dial face and Bezel are an attractive Oval shape and there is a new dial cover installed. There are two new dial lamps installed, new grill cloth, new AC power cord, and new filter/paper capacitors. The remaining electronics were all checked/tested and replaced if needed. The chassis cleaned and all moving parts adjusted and lubricated if needed. Size: 16.5″ long x 10″ tall x 8.5 deep. The speaker is in excellent condition and the volume level is strong and the voice is clear. There is an antenna pigtail attached to the rear of the radio that will require you to attach a few feet of wire to it for proper reception and performance. Performance will vary based on your location and signal strength. The radio plays great with no issues. Great piece for your collection or display in your home or office.
