Help identify Grunow radio
#1

 Can anyone please help me figure out what I have here. The label on the chassis says type 6H. All info I can find says they are 6 tube chassis'. This one has nine tubes. I have also been searching all the various radio co.s for a pic of the cabinet and can not find one. Thinking this might be frankien radio. Any help appreciated. The tube line up best I can tell is: 6K7-6A8-6K7-6F6-6V6-6SQ7-6SK7-80-76. Here is some pics. of chassis and cabinet.

It is a mismatched radio. The holes were bored up to fit the new chassis. The whole face seems to be franken. he chassis is a teledial and the face has been hacked to fit. Looks like there may hqave even been a tunung eye at one time.
Cant locate the cabinet yet but there was either a pot on the top center or a tuning eye as I can see.

From what I can see there is a 6SK7 in there. Did you type the right tube lineup?

Thanks Kirk. Yes there is a 6SK7 tube in it, three tubes gone. I picked this up at the swap meet last month as a throw in on a philco mod. 84 that I got. and looked at it last night. Think this will be a parts radio.
