I'm trying to find a little info on this little ole radio that belongs to the granny next door. It appears to cheapo but it's hers and she'd like to get it fixed. It's not listed here, and the only way I could get a general idea of the model number was from the Radio museum.It's either a 419,424,or atomic. Tubes are 50C5,35C5,12BE6,12AV6, and 12BA6. I tried Tech Presevation but for some reason all I get is a blank page. I can replace everything one for one except for the large resistor....about 1/4" diameter and appears to be a 470 ohm....not sure enough to mess up granny's lil ole radio. Any help would be appreciated by me and granny.
