Radiola Senior
#2

Seems like a good price! Earlier models have a wood front (top) panel and the later are bakelite. #30 toob is a good mod as they are much cheaper and won't kill your A battery like a WD-11 (250ma vs 60ma) Come to think of it I don't know if a globe toob would fit? Take a quick look it the socket does it have 3 small holes and one larger one? If so start looking for a WD-11. Check out Bill Turner site he reproduces a WD-11 using a test tube and a 5676 pencil toob.

ps Your's is the later version.

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!
