FADA 366-T "Flash-O-Matic" (1937)
(wood tube table radio w/SW)

FADA 366-T "Flash-O-Matic" (1937)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

There is a lot of confusion as to who owned and/or ran FADA Radio and Electric Corporation. Frank D'Andrea was involved with both companies, FADA, and Andrea. But there is information that Jacob Marks ran FADA until 1955. Either way, Andrea became FADA at some point. The 366T is a six-tube, two-band (AM,SW) radio. It had an electric preset system with six frequency presets that could be selected on a panel on the chassis. We replaced all of the capacitors with new equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where necessary. An input for external devices, a safety fuse, a new power cord and antenna lead were installed. Gary stripped the Walnut and Mahogany Ingraham-designed cabinet. Gary's cabinet refinishing is unsurpassed, and he ended up with a gorgeous "piano" lacquer finish. The knobs, chassis and speaker are original, and a crystal clear dial cover from Mark Palmquist was installed. The lights are for indicating the presets. Turn the band switch to automatic and the bottom center knob switches the preset stations. This is a very unique, hard-to-find radio. This one is fully functional and ready for your collection! 15"W x 9"H x 9"D.
