16B chassis — questions
#26

Sorry if I threw in any confusion... somehow I missed thread comments before posting.

16 is the basic model number, the letter suffix denotes the cabinet/console style. There were also some minor circuit variations between console and table models. The 16 also had early (5 band) and later (4 band) designs. Yours seems to have the earlier 5 band design, if I note the dial markings correctly.

What else do you have from the radio? Speaker, cabinet?

If you plan to restore, start by taking lots of notes, and study the schematic and chassis layout. It is a bit like learning your way around a new town

Plus, there is a lot of help available right here on the forums Icon_smile

I don't hold with furniture that talks.
