38, 38 A, 38 B
#3

Thank you Terry.

That really helps relieve a worry I had, that there may have been many farm models with the "A" designation that were in addition to the "B" models.,...but not so.  Whew!

What I'm trying to do, is identify a radio my Mother's family had waaaaay back in the 1930s.  I am slowly eliminating the models we know it can't
be : We know it was a cathedral, ...we know is wasn't newer than 1935,... and we know it operated on batteries. 

I got to the 38B and ran into this stumbling block , but that info clears it up.

I'm at June of 1934, verifying them between the Gallery and NostalgiaAir, that they used batteries.  So far that has reduced the possibilities from  over 65 cathedrals  down to SIX,  . . . so far.

I'll get back with you.   Icon_e_smile
