hi all
i was given an old farm radio a few days ago. it has no name plate on it. have no idea what make or model it is. ive uploaded some pics here. http://s1132.photobucket.com/albums/m567/ajc31980/
it has the following tubes.. 38,34,ic6,1b5/25s. was told it maybe a Simplex or a Zephyr model DF. but i dont want to start any thing till im sure. ive never worked on a radio like this one. there is a red tag on the back .. licensed under patents of general electric company , Radio corporation of America , westinghouse electric & mfg co. and associated companies , only for radio amateur experimental and broadcast reception . the chassis has c? del df( p?) k and 777221 stamped on it. i would be thank for any info that any one can give me. it also is missing the vibrator. so i have to figure out what one it takes as well.

The escutcheon of your radio does look like a Simplex. It is upside down. The Simplex name would have been on the bottom of the escutcheon.

wow thanks for all the reply's. as fare as i can tell there is nothing else marked on it any ware. except on the back of the tuner u can kind of see in the one pic. i can try to take a better one of it. ill upload it in a few . it looks like there may have been a name plate above the dial and its now missing.

hi Dale and thank you for the reply. that does look a lot like the one i have. im starting to thing i may never find out exactly what mine is. i think im going to start focusing on finding a vibrator for it. im sure there's gotta be a way to figure out what it takes. and ill go from there.

How many pins does the vibrator socket have ? And is this a six volt radio ?
4/11/2011 1:21:22 AMAJ(94682:94675)
:How many pins does the vibrator socket have ? And is this a six volt radio ?
:
it has 4 pins. Im going guess that its a 6 volt . i don't know if u saw it in the pics but it has a ballast resistor. i was told that its to drop it down from 32 volts to 6 volts. so with out that ballast resistor in there it would be a 6 volt ?

I see this is a 6 or 32 volt radio. The 5 pin vibrator is most likely a 6 volt synchronous type. This link does show a pin base.
http://www.radiosforoldcars.com/vibratorsbases.htm
If you look at this 6 volt farm radio, it shows the typical connections to the transformer.
http://www.nostalgiaair.org/Resources/114/M0003114.htm
With these two links you should be able to figure out the vibrator for your radio.
