[Radio Hound]

Hi, I just found a small tabletop Aria Radio. I know that this radio name was made by several manufacturers prior to the war. It has model 543 hand written on the bottom of the cabinet but other than that no indications. I also spent 3 days looking on Nostalgia Air at all manufacturers for models 543. I found one close to the tube line up. My radio has 80, 6A7, 6K7, 6Q7G, and the last tube is missing which I suspect to be 6f6. The closest one I found was made by Stewart Warner, Its line up is 5w4G, 6a8G, 6k7, 6Q7G, 6F6G. Does anyone have any help here so I get off to the right start. This thing has such a cool wood cabinet in great shape.

By the way, my radio has what I believe to be the antenna coil on top of the chassis and not protected other than a wax coating and the wires from it run to the back of the chassis and are cut off there. Looking at the label that has the handwritten model number on it, it makes me wonder it this was not a experimental model.
