Just found this very interesting thread while searching for info about my Magnavox Belvedere that I am restoring.
It was made about 1947 or 48 and has the mounting bracket for the optional FM Tuner but no tuner.
I recapped the amp and recveiver and it is a great sounding radio.
It has a WC 356-1 record changer which is a 3 speed replacement for the original. This changer was a real pain to get workong properly,but worth the effort.
I believe a CR189B FM Tuner would be the correct one for this unit, and I hope to one day find one.
This is my first post on this forum but I have corresponded with some of the members here who are also on the ARF.
Best Regards,
Paul
