Radiola 18 Amplifier & PS
#12

Good golly, inflation has even hit old Radiolas...

I have had three Radiola 60's paid $10 for the first two and $20 for the one I have kept. I have also had two 18's and one 17 they were all $10 each, Oh I DO have the lamp hoods Icon_smile.  Finally two Radiola 33 for $10 each and all have working power supplies...I have also had two Radiola 44's, traded one off as it had severe pot metal twisties. The good one I bought some 40 ya for $30 was fine but checking it some 20ya the dial no longer moves. I hope its not twisted to heck..

I also have a Radiola 22, the battery model. It's casting was stable last time I looked. I "should" get this working as it is the only battery TRF I have with screen grid tubes... This came to me for free in 1962 from an estate cleanout, I was 16 at the time..

All in all, never had to re-cap any of these old irons.

I did spend time with the 60 and critically tuned the front end and got the RF to track with the oscillator. I managed to get the radio down to the noise level. Receiving New York city daytime from Dartmouth MA.

Sorry, I do not have any parts for radios in this AC series...

Now if it was for Radiola's AR-812, 24, 25, 26, 28 & 30, those, I have bought a lot of junker parts. But I gave my Radiola 25 and 28 to the Connecticut museum.

Good Luck with the home made SPU... (socket power unit)...
