Silverstone Radio Model #1965
12/12/2000 4:56:09 PMMatt McManus
I have a Silverstone Radio (Model # 1965) with a case in need of some repairs. I actually I have no idea of its worth. I am wondering if I would be better off selling the whole piece or dismantle it for parts. All the tubes are present (although I do not know if they still function). Anyone have any suggestions. Perhaps maybe a good website to learn more about it.

I think that you have a real gem there. I have a Silvertone model 1968 console with 13 tubes including an eye tube. Four of the tubes are 45's in a push-pull parallel output circuit. I understand that there were several variations with numbers close to it. The variations were with or without the eye tube, with or without variable IF coupling, etc. If yours is one of these (and I think it is) then it is worth saving unless it's a real basket case.
