Hi everyone, I realise that a photo of the set in question would make this easier and I hope to post one soon. But in the meantime someone may recognise this set from my description.The bloke I bought it from said he thought it had come out of a Chev.It is certainly American. The vibrator is 6 volt. So , so far it could be any set. But several tubes are Delco brand.And the valve lineup is a little unusual, using 7 pin miniature valves up to the detector and an octal 6V6 for output. Rectifier is a 6X5.The miniature valves are retained in their sockets with a natty spring clip like a spiral , in the centre hole of which is lodged the pinch or sealing knob of each valve. I have not come across these clips before.It is permeability tuned with black plastic buttons.The speaker output is via a single ceramic RCA socket . I had hoped to find a paper tag inside giving some clue but....nothing. Valve lineup is 6BA6,6BE6,6BA6,6AT6,6V6, 6X5 .If anyone can offer any pointers I'd be grateful.
