RCA Livingston
#1

Well we had a very nice event last Saturday up in New Hampshire sun came out and everything....well attended. I had brought some things up to get rid of and said no more radios to come home.....Well A friend of mine had this RCA, in 1954 it sold for 79.95! Big bucks. I also needed a few tubes and happened to find this Philco branded one I had not seen before. So a pretty good day. The Radio is heavy, large speaker, transformer powered. Who named it "Livingston"? Too much scotch at lunch for the AD Department. Did not see schematic in Nostalgia AIr so will look around.

I will probably keep this thing the case is not bad but some spots on the top molding. "Starlight" tube? Some guy from Ford must have thought that one up.
