So I am sick and I had a fever....
I am a bit better but when I woke up yesterday I had an eBay message that my item had been shipped...
What item I thought?
It seems that I purchased a Philco Car radio part...
Anyone know anything about it? It is an AR-50. I am supposing I will have to find the ret of it now,

When having a fever, stay away from the computer altogether.
Next time you might buy an elephant or...Gosh forbid....no I do not even want to think of that.

You are the proud owner of a prewar 6v car radio!!!
If you get another fever maybe you can win the car to go with it!

Would be easier to put a 110v power transformer in it.

That is not all I bought!
I purchased 3 record players, a radio which is not a radio.. (it is a TV converter that was advertised as a radio), and a lamp clock!
ARGH!
I did remember putting in a few low offers on things but they all accepted now,
I'll let you do the power transformer Terry

This is what low fuel prices did to you! You have too much disposable income on your hands.

Was just looking at the diagram and looks like it just as 5 presets no continuous tuning. Kinda unhandy.
