The model 25 from 1933 is a four-tube TRF (Tuned Radio Frequency) receiver. Emerson made radio and merchandising history with this model in that it was the first practical, popularly accepted "compact" to come into being. It uses a 39 tube as a RF Amp, a 36 tube as a Detector and 1st Audio, a 38 tube as an audio output and a 37 as an AC line Rectifier wired with its grid and plate tied together. That said, it'll pick up several of your most powerful local stations with the external antenna I'll provide, but don't expect much more. The set has just been completely serviced, recapped and rewired. The cabinet with walnut veneers and marquetry inlay also has been beautifully refinished to its original luster. Probably one of the best examples of this set you'll likely ever find. Another great radio from my personal, smoke-free collection. About 10"W x 6-1/2"H x 4-1/2"D. $550.00. (1750077)
