_nr2.jpg "Stromberg-Carlson 230H (1937)") |
Stromberg-Carlson of Rochester, New York, is probably known more for their design and manufacturing of telephones, but they also made very high-quality radios. Hiring the brightest engineers right out of college, their radios were brilliantly designed and flawlessly manufactured, right down to the cabinet designs. The 230-H is a gorgeous example of that. The 230-H is a seven-tube, three-band (AM,SWx2) radio. We replaced all of the capacitors with modern equivalents. All of the resistors and tubes were checked and replaced where needed. We installed a safety fuse, power cord, audio input cable and a new antenna lead. The radio has plenty of volume through an 8-inch speaker, and good sensitivity across the dial. The tuning eye is bright and active. Gary stripped the cabinet of its old finish, and with his usual mastery ended up with a gorgeous "piano" lacquer finish. The radio has the original knobs, speaker and chassis. A reproduction grille cloth was installed. The 230-H is a large, rare radio and I doubt you can find one restored to this high quality. 24"W x 13-1/2"H x 10"D. $1,495.00. (1600534) |
