Hi everyone,
I have come across the remains of a car radio of considerable vintage. The valve lineup is OZ4 41 85 58 57. The components suggest it is American. There is a sticker on the chassis which has been partly rubbed off but the remaining letters are " ....LAN BROS. " Does anyone know if Gilfillan Brothers ever made car radios? Or were there any other U.S. manufacturers with Brothers in their title? And the valve lineup suggests an odd mix of filament voltage for a 6 volt car radio but the tube numbers are stamped into the tube sockets and the sockets are all original riveted in .Any help in unravelling this mystery appreciated.
Thanks
