THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD! |
This RadioChron was made by the Clago Radio Corp., located in Chicago, Illinois. The main feature of RadioChron radios was the placement of an electric clock in the middle of the grille. The clocks were made by Hammond and were a "spin-to-start" clock. The Model B is a six-tube, AM only, TRF radio. The speaker is mounted at an angle to make room for the clock. The clock was cleaned and lubed and keeps good time. We replaced all of the capacitors with modern equivalents. The resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where necessary. We added a safety fuse, new power cord and a new antenna lead. The radio performs well and has a tone control for good fidelity. The stylish cathedral cabinet has a Bird's Eye Maple front. Gary did a masterful job stripping and refinishing this gorgeous radio. He ended up with a really nice semi-gloss finish, which is perfect for the set. The original chassis, speaker and clock are present. A reproduction grille cloth was installed. This rare, beautiful radio is like new. A totally unique piece for your collection. 21"H x 16-1/2"W x 10-1/2"D. |
