Pilot 183 (1935)
(wood tube tombstone radio w/SW)

Pilot 183 (1935)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

Pilot Electric Manufacturing Company was founded in Brooklyn NY, by Isidor Goldberg in 1922. The company had several businesses, located in New York, Long Island and Massachusetts. They made early TRF sets and tubes. Pilot radios were also manufactured in England and Italy for the European market prior to WWII. The Pilot 183 is a six-tube, two-band (AM,SW) radio. The capacitors were replaced with new equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. A new power cord, safety fuse, auxiliary input and antenna lead were installed. The cabinet has Walnut, Maple, Australian Laurel and Zebrawood veneers. Gary refinished it to a beautiful lacquer "piano" finish. The radio has the original knobs, chassis and speaker. A period-correct grille cloth was installed. Pilot radios of this quality are very hard to find, and are a great addition to any serious collection. Make this one yours today! 16"H x 13"W x 9"D.
