Philco chair side radio A801 value
#2

Hi June and welcome,
It's a bit of an odd set in that it's an ac operated car radio in a chairside cabinet. From a style stand point it's not particularly appealing. I would take a guess and if the cord is cracking that the set hasn't been service in a long time. If it hasn't been serviced that's -. I'd say if it is in unserviced with a good finish and original maybe $50-70. All fixed up and a nice finish maybe $100-150 to the right person.

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!

Terry

If you have rust between the vanes, I wonder how you get the NJ in between, and how you then wipe it off.morzh — 12:02 PM

If the noise is still there, the OPT might just be OK. Or so we hope.morzh — 12:01 PM

You would probably be replacing the OPT.RodB — 10:54 AM

Thanks guys. I think I'll give the Naval Jelly a try since I can better control where it goes.dconant — 09:23 AM

Just forget this number, it is useless anyway. Simply proceed with your project.morzh — 10:08 PM

My $0.02 is that it is a misprint. I tried to look up the value for the similar 84 and 37-84, and ther is no resistance...MrFixr55 — 09:51 PM
