![]() THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD! |
A rather unique mid-century Golden Throat RCA utilizing FOUR thumbwheels instead of knobs that control off/on/volume, tone, Tuning and phono/BC/SW. Large, bold Lucite dial that has a very cool effect in a darkened room. The dial scale itself rotates around while the dial cover remains stationary. The knobs, dial surround, and base are all anodized gold metal. The base especially has tarnished with age but it's still a nice trim accent. There is a tiny bit of tarnish on the dial face itself, but it does not affect any of the numbers. The cabinet itself is molded in a deep burgundy (almost black) Bakelite and is crack free. The six-tube AM/short wave chassis has been gone through with all new wax and filter capacitors, a strong tested set of tubes. The controls were cleaned and lubricated to make them move smoothly again. It receives all of my local stations with its built-in loop antenna. Requires a long-wire antenna for SW (or use the factory installed RCA jack underneath to stream your own audio). A totally unique post war RCA model that doesn't turn up very often. 12-1/2"w X 8"h X 7"D. |
