November 4, 2007 Hagstar's Travels

I bought this somewhat rare chairside locally from a newspaper ad last Fall. It has six tubes and AM and SW bands. It had been badly refinished in polyurethane years ago, and a turntable had been bolted to the lower shelf area and removed leaving four gaping holes. After stripping, plugging the holes, then tonering, lacquering and chassis restoration here she is. I also made short videos of the bizarre "Cone-Centric" dial being tuned manually. Schematic can be found at http://www.nostalgiaair.org/Resources/256/M0013256.htm .

A sad looking thing as purchased for $40.00.
