Please be sure to review all my other auctions after you have looked at this one! I will be listing a broad and diverse range of vintage communications and technology items, related books, periodicals and ephemera... Something for everyone!Here is a Westinghouse Model RC which I started to restore decades ago. It has three Radiotron UV-201's with good filaments and is a very good candidate for your restoration completion or use it for parts...
As you can see in the pictures, I began a restoration on this rascal about 25 years ago and never finished. The RA tuner side is basically untouched and really only needs a complete cleaning to look great. The DA detector/amplifier side is where I started. A thorough cleaning was started and you can see what areas were completed. As I mentioned, the three Radiotron UV-201's all have good filaments and the transformers show continuity. One side of the hard rubber mount for the tube deck is still there but one side needs to be replaced. The fasteners for this are present. One side of the deck has a reproduced support piece (see photos) but I have several parts chassis now so I can supply the original part to the high bidder. The front panels will clean up nicely as well as the control knobs. You can see the difference with the little effort I put into the DA panel years ago...
Otherwise, internally, everything looks pretty good with all the wiring looking pretty undisturbed. Remember I do have a few DA's in various states, so if you need any materials I have overlooked, just let me know and I can most likely get them for you...:)
With your personal TLC, this Model RC receiver will be a great looking set! Or, if you have one that you think has "better bones", use this for the stuff you might need!
I have tried to take good photographs, and they represent the condition accurately! If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask...
If you are a collector of 1920's radios or Westinghouse gear, this might be for you!
