Need help finding a radio
#3

Mike is right...it's not a very little radio. If you want one bedside, you'll need a fairly large nightstand, as this radio is 18 inches long by about 11 high and 10 deep. I have one I restored and it is a decent performer (with a long wire antenna) for a 6 tube radio. From a convenience standpoint, you may want to consider a 40-150 or 40-155 instead. They are the same size / style as the 1939 model you seek, yet have a greater tube count (the 40-155 has 8 tubes) for better performance. Both feature a built in loop antenna so you won't need to string a long wire in your bedroom. Icon_thumbup
