This special is open to all AM AC/DC table radios from the late 30s through the early 60s, that contain 5 or 6 octal, "Loktal" or miniature tubes, similar to the ones pictured here. Zenith Transocanic radios, and most other 2-Way power portables aren't included in the special.
5 Tube Price: $49.99*
6 Tube Price: $59.99*
*Prices do not include Return Shipping and sales tax (NY State Residents), other parts beyond those listed, are additional. See below for more fine print.
Whatever amount was paid for shipping. I'll need that same amount for return shipping. That's what Return Shipping is.
If your radio has a power transformer it isn't an AC/DC type. However, it may still qualify for the special. If it does it will have more capacitors and expensive filter capacitors to replace. Please add $10.00 if your qualifying radio has a power transformer.

Shipping me a radio couldn't be easier. It's as easy as sending out a roll of film to be processed.
First, count the tubes in your radio. Then check to see if your radio has a power transformer or not. Radios made in the late 50s used a selenium rectifier instead of a tube like a 35W4. The selenium rectifier adds one tube to the count. If you don't want to guess, please call me*, or send an e-mail. Tell me the make and model number and I'll tell you the price.

Next pack your radio chassis, and enclose a USPS Postal Money Order for the restoration and return shipping.
If you ship by priority mail, your radio will be back to you in less than a week, working like new or better. Express Mail is ok too, if you need your radio back quicker. Please note that the above address accepts US Mail Shipments only.
Please enclose a piece of paper with your name address and phone number, so I know who's radio is in the box. A Priority Mail or Express mail Address sticker would help with the repackaging too. Please indicate the amount the radio was insured for as well.
10% Quantity Discount: If ten or more qualifying radios are sent together and the total payment is enclosed, subtract 10% from the total. |
