Year FM Pilot T601A tuner only made
 

can someone please tell me the year this is made. Good unit after replacing caps.

Tuning cap is weird low # plates used, similair to prewar fm but postwar. year made?? well made and clean unit.


:music::yes::drool:

Around 1947

I have a T601 (no "A").
The Sams for it is dated Nov. 1947

wow,
thanks for info. need more caps replaced, great set. performs well. tuning cap still looks like prewar fm type.

Possibly a hack version to use surplus tune caps from old band? The fm antenna has loop going back into rf or if section with another loop. strangley reminds me a little of that conveter hack circuit from old to new FM bands.

IS this a typical FM circuit or similiar to I described. Possilble transition piece?

:scratch2:

I think it is a transition era FM tuner. Every feature points to that. 1947 era without doubt. Pilot made a model or two this way.
