Here's what I'm going to go with. The Jesse French Piano Company in Indiana manufactured radios for a few years beginning in November 1928. They had a model 5-093 that has some real similarities to my radio and after cleaning and looking closer at the ID tag mine reads Model 5096. I'm going to guess that Peck & Hills Furniture in Chicago bought their radio chassis from Jesse French.
French's 5-093 tube lineup is nine tubes the same as my eight plus a #27 detector. I'm hoping that the 5-093 schematic will help guide me.
Odd to me, I have 5 #26 amplifier tubes and no #27 like most have.
Amputee or not, it's a cool chassis and the cabinet is really nice. I think I'm going for it. Any comments or advice before I do?
Thanks,
Alan
