New Project: 1934 Colonial 662 (corrected model)
#10

Quick update, including a correction first. The radio had a sticker on the inside of the top, declaring the model as 662 (Not 651 as stated. From what I can find, there is very little difference, Tube lineup, chassis layout and band coverage is very similar. It may be a year older than the 1934 mentioned in my first post.

On to technical matters. I tested the speaker - output transformer and voice coil are good, but the field coil is open. Fortunately, the speaker is held together with nuts and bolts, so I have been able to dismantle and free up the coil, but stopped there for now. Next thing is to see if I have the required wire, and set about the rewind.

I don't hold with furniture that talks.
