I just got my AK-44 back last night and my friend was in the mood for a little trading. That was great because I had a few radios, two of them projects I wanted to unload. Little did I know I would be coming home with five more Atwater-Kent radios when the deal was done! Bad news, none of them have tubes and one radio (a model 36) might be toast. But now I have found 6 Atwater-Kents in the past two weeks! Now I have one type 37, two type 42s (one for parts, two 40's (one for parts), a 36 that is really bad inside, and a complete and working 44. Here's a picture of last night's haul. Now I need to find some tubes, a few more type E speakers, and a 'little stove'.
