U.S.Radio & Television Corp- Model 80
#3

Hello Fellow Texan, I was very glad to see your response to my big old paperweight. I had a felling that another company was involved and I'm sure glad you knew who it was. The radio had nothing to identify the company except the escutcheon which was for a Majestic but is incorrect for the dial. The cabinet also looks like a late Philco 65. The interior of the cabinet had been modified for this chassis with two additional pieces of 2X4 and two new holes drilled.The tube lineup you listed is correct for my chassis but my Vol I of the JF Rider does not show the Majestic 70 having nine tubes nor could I find the same tube lineup in Nostalgiaair. Do you have another source that does show the Model 80 with nine tubes? Thanks again for all of your help. I'm sure I will have more questions before this old puppy is put to bed.

Thanks for the information MrFixr55.   It's tube amplification and not solid state. TOMfklown — 11:27 AM
