Hello
I was given an Imperial radio. It has no Model ID on it. It has 6 tubes. One 6A7, one 6D6, one 75, two 42's and one 80. It has two tuning knobs, one for AM and one for SW. A knob to switch from AM to SW. A knob for on/off and volume. So I am looking for help in finding a schematic. I am unable to post pictures because my picture files are too large. They are over the 500kb limit.
Thanks Bob

It could be a private label radio made by Belmont, Wells Gardner, or one of the other independents for a store chain. Alternatively it may be a foreign made set, American style tubes were commonly used in many places around the world in the 1930s, 40s, and 50s, such as in Italy, Australia/New Zealand, and even in France. It would be helpful to see some pictures, a chassis layout can tell you a lot about who made a set.

My guess would be that these "Imperial" radios were either made by Belmont or Sentinel so I would have a look under either of those makes, under the 1935-37 model years.
