Interesting Raytheon.

Since the AK TV Adoption program was able to place the 53 Admiral in a good home lets see what we can do with this one.


Very nice looking Raytheon, I have a Truetone with the same chassis and knobs but it has a different cabinet and a 12" round tube, easy set to get running, oddball variable tuner.

I've had that same set in a Fada also. It's a cheap vari-cap tuner with a band switch for 2-6 & 7-13. Not a Mallory Inductuner like DuMont and Crosley had.


On the squiggle pen: I like ours better. It's anodized aluminum . We got them for our avocado business.

That's a nice set. Pity it isn't still in Southern California.
