This Philco Model D597 five tube radio was manufactured in 1955 and covers the AM Broadcast band. Note the Conelrad decals at 640 and 1240 kHz. This radio was found in an antique mall in Richmond Kentucky and purchased for eight dollars. Several tubes and capacitors were replaced. It has a very good receiver, for a five tube radio. It has a printed-circuit board which appears to have been wave-soldered. What was Conelrad? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CONELRAD |
