201X chassis
#1

I found a 201X for sale. But upon inspection of the pics, I see the electrolytic is missing from the right side of the chassis. But I don't see a hole where the can was. It's 2 hours away, so I'm not going to drive there unless I'm sure it has the right chassis. Everything else looks O.K., though.

I've seen another pic with some sort of short wave/standard wave switchbox attached and wired to the gnd/ant clips. Was this an option?

Thanks

It sure looks right. Compare to the picture of the 201X chassis from tuberadioland.com:

The electrolytics are missing on the one near you but the tab where they should be mounted is in the right spot.

The filters have the same setup as my 200X. They mount like a model 60 w/a metal band secured in the center and on each end to hold the caps in place. From what I see the tubes are in the correct places.

Now I think I've got!

Now I see it. Thanks all. I'm going over tomorrow and most likely buy it.
