RCA 100 cathedral
#1

I made one final impulse buy today on a radio and now will have to behave for a while! I found this cute little RCA cathedral/tombstone on my errands today and couldn't resist bringing it home. It's a little four tube set similar to my Philco 37-84 (actually a bit smaller) and other than the missing 1-V tube, it appears all complete. I guess this is a late version of this radio as it uses a type 41 for an output instead of a 38.

   

No matter where you go, there you are.

I knew RCA made that 38 tube for something!!! You don't see them used much at all 'cept for a car radios.
