Atwater-Kent 84, restoration.
#9

Ron

I forgot, but when you said "phone number", I remembered, caus I usually remember how I act when I need to dig info. A guy in upper PA.
BTW, some of his ads are still in Craigslist.
I am afraid there will be not too much to follow, if the radio was restored properly. Which is what it looks like.

You could look the 82 thread from, I think, 2022. It is very similar, but there will be tons of action as this radio was unmolested.

As for the fuses, yes both these models do have the fuse. Indeed a nice feature. I only have seen in in these two: in the 808A (console) I did not see any fuse.

Well, I have just had my Turkish coffee, now I am fulfilling my morning quota of on-line participation Icon_smile and then I will go down the dungeon to try to check the transformer and perhaps power up the 84.
(reminds me, need to check the speaker).

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
