Air Master radio Airmaster radio *HELP WANTED WITH INFORMATION PLEASE* 5Y3 rectifier 6F6 output 6R7 detector + 1st Audio 6K7 IF amplifier 6k8 converter 6k7 RF amplifier XXX Magic eye *Controls L-R* Tone + on/off Volume Tuning Band *Bands* BC local BC SW *Chassis* Stamped with AX084 It looks to have had repairs 30 or more years ago. And extensive work has been done under the chassis. A replacement transformer perhaps some time ago, and definitely more recently electrolytic capacitors and yellow coupling capacitors. And those repairs are a bit crude, insofar as the joint has been made and left to hang in the air from the old electrolytic capacitors. Also I am pretty sure the alignment has been fiddled with, on the shortwave band especially. It is a lovely radio, but far from original inside now. A radio like this should perform really well with an RF stage and be useful in places with poorer reception. Help with details on the brand , and certainly help with a schematic or circuit diagram are most sought-after please??? Thanks kindly for your time to read this post! Very best regards, Lance Neame. .
