Edison....never worked one one.
Then again, I never worked on a heck of a whole lot.
Mostly Philcos.
Well, they are not that different after all....except for AK usin 58 tubes everywhere, same thing...

I have a pool table there...and a sauna. And there is a dedicated beer fridge. Huh? Oh, and a bar stand too.

p.s. I have an Edison radio for you to work on Icon_thumbup

 Edison radios don't appear to be anything exotic, Edison bought out Splitdorf around 1927-28 (and overpaid for the company) after the old man retired and the son took over. From what I can see they are pretty much your standard TRF circuit with typical late 1920s and early 30s AC tubes.
