Went to the Navarre, Ohio flea market today and found a Truetone model D1075 radio-phonograph console in decent shape. Finally have the radio to complete my 'big three' postwar department store radios. Sears, Montgomery Wards, and Western Auto were the big sellers of department store radios around my area at that time. This looks to have the Detrola built chassis in it. Wasn't wanting another big radio-phono set, but it is hard to find prewar Truetone radios here and when you do, people treat the units with the Detrola chassis like they are gold price-wise.

No matter where you go, there you are.

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