Hi everyone, 

I have recently come across a radio of this name here in New Zealand and repaired it back into going condition.It is a model 365C and is quite interesting as it is American and it has a mixture of valves, using both octal and what we in N.Z. call UX bases. Fada is a brand that was previously imported into N.Z. pre World War 2  though it was never common here. This is the first I have seen in 20 years of collecting.
I would like to make a little presentation about it to our local vintage radio group meeting but I  have two problems. 
The first is that I am not sure if the chassis is in the right cabinet.It fits around the dial and  the knob holes  all tally up but the chassis was bolted to a wooden board which was secured into the cabinet with two wood screws driven up through the bottom of the cabinet  in somewhat random positions . 
Does anyone have a Fada Model 365C in a wooden cabinet who can tell me if this is how the original was fixed in the cabinet? 
Secondly I would like to know what is the correct pronunciation of the word "Fada". Does it rhyme with Fader, or does it rhyme with the word for the art movement da-da?
Thanks everyone and Cheers.

FADA stands for F. A. D. Andrea. It is usually pronounced so it rhymes with the art movement. Sorry I can't help with the cabinet question. I have searched on the net, but cannot find pictures of that actual model. It may be pretty rare. Nostalgia Air does show the schematic. http://www.nostalgiaair.org/pagesbymodel...005450.pdf

Thank you Mike. I can speak at our group with confidence! Thanks also for the heads up on the schematic though I had already found that  in the online Riders so helpfully provided by your American Radio History organisation.From memory there are pictures of  Fada 365Cs  on Radiomuseum but I think they are all bakelite sets.Thanks again and cheers.
