About our Radios
The sale of these
radios will benefit the California Historical Radio Society.
Over the coming months, the CHRS will be listing hundreds of
collectible radios, most of which were bequeathed to us from the
personal collection of one of our members. Almost all of these
sets have been professionally restored, both cosmetically and
electronically. All of them, unless identified otherwise, have
have been tested to determine that (1) local stations can be
received clearly, without undue hum or static, and (2) that all
controls are in proper working order. However, due the age of
these sets, CHRS cannot guarantee that each set will be functioning
electronically when it reaches you no matter how well packed.
If one should arrive in less than working order, please contact us.
The sets are being packed very carefully by collectors like
yourself. All plastic radios will be safely double-boxed, as
will wooden ones as required.
If you’re interested in one of our
radios, please send us your zip code so we can calculate shipping
costs. Also please let us know if you’re paying via PayPal or
using a check or money order. PayPal payments are easier for
us and the radios generally ship faster. With checks, we must
wait for the check to clear our account before we ship.
CHRS is a non-profit corporation chartered in the State of
California. CHRS was founded in 1974 to promote the
restoration and preservation of early radio and broadcasting.
We are in Berkeley, CA in the historic KRE building. Please
