Hello, A friend recently dropped off an old rca wood radio. It is similar to a 1940 rca in shape/form and assembly. It is a shortwave rig. What I found on it is RC511, OY30. That was on the front of the chassis. On the back is a partial decal and was able to come up with a serial no# of 040851 plus some no# above that 550731. Not sure about the first two 5s tho.It has 4 pots across the bottom missing knobs and 5 or 6 pushbuttons above the speaker grill, which is missing, also the pushbuttons are missing. The radio cabinet wood is in surprisingly good shape.There is also a decal/sticker on the bottom that appears to have a small schematic. All the tubes are there. Can anyone help me identify this, at least somewhat. Don't have a digital cam.
