Rogers cabinet finished
#1

I had this radio given to me by a friend who said he had it given to him by a man who is in his 80s,and he used to listen to it when he was a kid.. Now that I have it finished I will invite them both over to see the radio,and hear it play.
It is rogers model 4821,,second from the top of the line for that year 1943-35.
I have had the radio about three years and I took it to an X radio repair man who told me that the power supply was shot,, I took it home and replaced one cap that I had missed and it worked very well. I did not strip the whole cabinet,,just the sides,top and bottom. I had to replace all the veneer on the bottom.. It is one of the best looking radios that I have.. I am just like the rest of you and wanted to show it as it took me a while to get it done.. I will post photos after I get the chassis in Dan
