Got an Airline 62-303 Movie Dial Radio Today!
#10

Thanks for the nice comments guys!

This should be an interesting set to work on. Quite a complex motorized tuning section (as long as I don't screw it up). The chassis paint is almost like brand new. I believe from the tags that were inside the cabinet it was originally in Amesbury, Ma and then moved to Dover, NH, which is where I got it. The fellow I bought it from is 68 and his father is going to be 102!

I really like the look of it and have all winter to work on it. I had just decided that I didn't need anymore radios until I get through the ones I already have.........and then I saw this one.........Tis a sad thing to be afflicted with this radio diseaseIcon_mrgreen

I found that the wire insulation was burnt.  The fly back needs corona dope! Why would someone put that there?Platinumblonde36 — 01:09 AM

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