Blue
Circa 1964-65

It's the Gilligan's Island radio. This is the same model (theirs was white &, or beige depending on time period) that was used on the show for years. It has not been determined for sure whether it was the Aiwa or Packard-Bell version of the AR-351, but both came off the same assembly line. Their prop dept installed a different handle and a telescopic antenna (as no telescopic type antenna is needed for AM). This one is in great shape. Transistor operation. Utilizes 4 standard "D" cell batteries. Both internal battery holders intact. Radio works great! With the exception of a some cracks around the back battery compartment and around the handle, the radio looks great! No corrosion in the battery compartment. Measures 12" wide x 6.5" tall (including handle) x 3" deep and weighs 3 lbs unpacked. Includes our standard 90 day limited warranty.

GRUNDIG
SIGNAL 700
DX / SHORT-WAVE 
WORLD AM / FM RADIO
           SOLD 9/10/09

These Grundig Signal 700 analog radios are great performing units. This one, unfortunately has a couple of problems. The volume control will not turn the unit all the way down. It stays pretty loud, even at it's lowest. Secondly the battery compartment door is missing. It still has AC capabilities and comes with the detachable AC cord. Disappearing antenna is in perfect working order, swivels and telescopes to over 2 feet!. Also includes jack on the side panel for connection of a tape deck or turntable via DIN cable. Bands are:
LW
MW (AM)
SW BAND 1
SW BAND 2
FM -- 86.5-108 MHZ
There is an 1/8" mini headphone jack.  With this feature you can connect the radios' output up to a stereo input, PA, sound system or anything that has an audio input.  You could even record from this jack. For AC operation it uses an external power supply (included). For DC (battery) operation it takes 4 X C cells.  We have completely gone through the radio cleaning all the controls and contacts and the entire chassis. The radio looks good, and with the exception of the above mentioned volume control issue, works perfectly. We do not have a manual, but it's very straight forward to operate and again does include the AC adaptor. 10.25" Wide X 9" Tall X 2. 5" Deep and weighs 4 lbs unpacked.

HAMMARLUND
SP-600 SP600
JX-10 JX10
AMATEUR / HAM / SHORT-WAVE 
WORLD RADIO

This is the famous and very sought after Hammarlund SP-600 / JX-10 radio. While I do restore A LOT of vintage audio gear, I am an idiot about serious radio gear, so keep that perspective in mind as I describe this unit. The AC cord has been replaced with a new one. All the tubes have been replaced and checked on our calibrated B&K 747B tester, even the new one's we ordered. I was going to pull all the tubes and sell the radio without them, but decided against that as most of the existing tubes checked fine. We replaced a few out of our stock and had to order 3 of the 6C4's new (NOS). Those were checked prior to installation as well. The radio is VERY clean inside and out! I powered it up over a 8 hour period 10-15 volts at a time on our Vari-AC. With all the tubes installed it draws only 1.3 amps and is stable there. I do not know how to safely connect a speaker, so I tested it with headphones. I don't really know how to operate it, so with a portable CB antenna connected I was able to only receive clean hiss. I am in a completely metal building so I get limited reception here anyway and this was in the middle of the day, not at night. The level of hiss would change periodically as I went through the different bands and settings. The RF / AF meter did respond to hiss levels as well. The Bands changed fine and the Freq knob and dial worked flawlessly throughout it's range many times back and forth.
If anyone has any advice on how to test it further, I am willing to listen.
I was going to sell the original and optional cabinet separately as it is worth a couple hundred on it's own, but decided to re-install it as it would facilitate packing for transit. All the original knobs are intact as are all the original tube shields / retainers. I have the 5R4 retainer as well, and it is included, but not shown in the photos and the non-Coke bottle tube I installed doesn't require it. That tube will be pulled and packed separately for shipment. The radio looks great! It's one of the cleanest I've seen on the web . The extensive photo collage should answer many questions you should have. 24" Wide (counting the case handles) X 12" Tall X 18" Deep and weighs 85 lbs unpacked.

PROTON
MODEL 320 WHITE
ALARM CLOCK / HI-FI RADIO
Circa 1984-91
       SOLD 2/23/10
 We have gone though this radio inside and out. All audio controls cleaned for static free operation. We also installed a new radio scale dial lamp as any radio from this time period will have this either burned out, or is not long from it. We have not seen a Proton 320 that did not and certainly will not need this done. It's about an hour procedure to change it, so be aware of that if you get one that has it out, otherwise it is difficult to see the tuning scale. Radio fully tests out and all functions perfect. We have actually been using it ourselves for an extended period of time and it always works flawlessly. Radio tunes and sounds great.
 
 I worked for a Proton dealer and sold these when they were new. The Proton 320, digital Alarm clock, analog tuner radio. The main strong point on the 320 is it's exceptionally, VERY HIGH QUALITY tuner for reception on both FM & AM bands and HUGE sound for such a small box. Since it's analog, and Proton quality, it just works!
 
 Features;
 
 - Analog AM & FM radio tuner
 - Fluorescent Digital Clock and full readout display
 - Separate Bass and Treble controls (unheard of on an alarm clock)
 - 5" full range speaker for "Hi-Fi" like sound (it really is incredible)
 - Dual, independent alarm settings allows for two different alarm times and each are selectable between radio or buzzer
 - Battery backup (standard 9 volt) holds the clock / calendar memory when the power goes out or is disconnected
 - Auto display dimmer senses room ambient light
 (works to varying degrees depending on ambient light)
 
 The following is excerpted from Protons web site:
 
 http://www.proton-usa.com/history.asp.htm
 
 "In 1982, PROTON unveiled its highly acclaimed Table Radio, the P300, better known in the market, as “The Radio,” and its self powered extension speaker, the P301. These sleek, all black products were so unique and provided such good sound that the public quickly embraced them. The Radio received a Consumer Electronics Design and Engineering Award and was named one of Rolling Stone magazine’s top products of the year. 1982 was also the year that PROTON taught the world there was a better way to wake-up in the morning with the introduction of the 320 clock radio, which became known as “The Clock Radio.” Both the 300 and 320 are still benchmarks for the quality consumer as well as the consumer electronics industry."
 
 
 I have one of these in white that I use in our kitchen. I listen to a lot of AM talk radio, and it's very difficult to get a modern radio that has even a decent AM tuner in it, let alone sonics that aren't painful to listen to. These Protons WORK!
 Again, we have completely gone though this radio, including cleaning it to like new condition. Measures 11.5" wide x 5.5" tall x 3.5" deep and weighs 5 lbs unpacked. Includes our standard 90 day limited warranty.

The amber turn single indicators light up when the power is turned on. The deep chrome bumper even has scale size real rubber bumper cones just like the original. The telescopic antenna is mounted on the front fender just like the car and is in prefect working order with no kinks, breaks or bends. The folding handle makes the windshield post when elevated and this one has no cracks in the handle or mounting flanges. The cassette well is the front hood while the battery compartment is in the trunk. We have gone through it cleaning and testing all. No issues! All the chrome and red body parts are in great shape with no chips, scratches, breaks or scuffs.  Looks, works and sounds great! Battery compartment spotlessly clean with no corrosion.

This thing is in great shape. We have completely gone through it cleaning all the controls. Very well designed and built radio. Constructed with high quality ALPS pots throughout. Volume control has a bit of internal wear, but nothing bad. Unit is very clean. Only cosmetic issues are a few minor dimples and scuffs along the top aluminum strip, a quarter sized whitish circle on the front cover (would come off with a bit more effort) and a SS# engraved in the lower right side bottom edge strip (see photos for all). Battery compartment is clean with no past corrosion. No chips, cracks or breaks anywhere. Both front and back covers snap on perfectly. Everything works and radio sounds great. True WORLD POWER 50 / 60 cycles and AC power can be selected between 110/120 VAC and 220/240 VAC for USA or European use. Comes with a copy of the owners manual compliments of a visitor from the UK. Measures 13.25" wide x 9.5" tall x 5" deep and weighs 12 lbs unpacked. Includes our standard 90 day limited warranty.

These Ten-Tec Triton IV's are very sought after radios. Unfortunately we don't have a power supply for this one. We did power it up with our bench 12 DC power supply. Unable to test any further than to verify it powered up with some lights. Cosmetically looks great. The dial string is intact, but we can only get it to slightly move so it is likely slipping. All original knobs intact. No rust or corrosion. Connector on rear is a 6-pin Cinch-Jones. 13.75" Wide X 5" Tall X 12.5" Deep and weighs 11 lbs unpacked.

    SOLD 3/06

WOW! Is this DECO or what. Looks like a "Stream-Liner" train engine or a Cord automobile grill. In "As-Found" condition and she's not had a very friendly "resting place" for the past many years. The Flame Maple, ("book-matched" in select places) wood veneer will need a few minor patches, the cabinet will need a bit of refurb and it will need to be re-finished. The electronics / chassis have also not been restored yet. The good news is that other than some knobs, she's all there and will restore nicely. The photos pretty much should tell the story. We generally sell radios in "restored / refurbished" condition, but we don't have the resources to tackle many currently, so until we do we are selling this one the way it sits. Measures 45" tall x 29.5" wide x 19" deep and weighs 100 lbs unpacked.
As-Found condition

Appropriate and secure pack, ship and full insurance via freight will run approx $225-$300 to the lower 48 US states. Other locations, including internationals can be individually calculated.

This appears to be a Philco "Holiday" model, but not 100% sure. Not much left of the insides, just the speaker. The CRT is still inside the tube housing and the wiring harness does extend into the lower case. What you see is what you get and the photos pretty much tell the story. With a bit of work it would make a decent "prop" unit or use for parts. Measures 27.5" tall x 20.5" wide x 15" deep and weighs 43 lbs. May be disassembled for shipping.
