Atwater Kent Big Box
#2

Hi Bill
My thought is that AK used the same circuit and parts for a long time. The model 20 to the some of their early AC set are all about the same expect for the cabinets and a minor tweak to the circuit. In saying that seems like the only things I've need for the AK's are the audio transformers. If you look on ebay there's always few beatup battery sets and a few model 35's and or 40's.
I think I would take the better one and put it together to sell as a whole unit.
That and a dollar will get you a donut.
Good luck
Terry

When my pals were reading comic books
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!

Terry
