Kennedy Cathedral Radio Identification
#2

Whatever the model is that chassis appears not to have been tampered with, it would be a good candidate for restuffing the capacitors both because of that, and because it's probably a rare set. I don't think the Kennedy brand survived past about 1932 or so, and Collin B. had nothing to do with the company by that point, I see to recall that they relocated to the mid West after he sold out. I'm curious as to what used to be on either side of the control panel, it looks like it may have had pilasters, or panels of veneer, that were lost somewhere along the way, it also looks like it was stored in an uncontrolled environment, though the chassis doesn't show it. The model 52A looks close.
Regards
Arran

Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
