Another unknown radio
1/20/2003 4:32:16 PMPat Walkup
Hi All
My wife brought home a radio from a flea market with no make or model number.
The tubes are 2 6P5, 5Y3, 6SQ7, 6SA7, 6SK7, and 6K6.
In appearance it resembles a Coronado 907. However, on the back it has W.M. Co, on the license tag. That is puzzling because the Coronado was made by Gamble Skagmo and W.M. Co stands for Warwick.
The Coronado has a 6AC5 output tube and 5Y4 rectifier, not a perfect match for my unknown set.
Perhaps being more experienced, you can find other sets with this tube lineup??
Thanks in advance for your help

Hi Pat

Use Warwick 0-74 or 0-75 schematic. It's in Rider 11-12. The original rectifier was 5W4. 5Y3 works as replacement.
