Hi all, there is an auction coming up in Christchurch, at Smiths Auctions - there will be some pretty rare stuff in it, including a Scott console, and another Scott RF and seperate PSU / amp chassis. All chrome, although not in the best of condition. Other things I noted: A Wurlitzer radio, Philco cathedral, an Edison lowboy, Atwater Kent model 55 and speaker, RCA model 100 speaker, Grebe Synchrophase, Atwater Kent 708 all-wave set (same as the one I am repairing at the moment) and heaps more... see the photos for an overview.

Hi Steve, The one circled looks like a Rodgers majestic (canada). If it is I have one of these missing the dial surround and knobs. Would you be able to get some detailed photos of the front including knobs and dial surround well as see if there's any tags in the back to identify the exact model (these were one chassis for multiple models)? If anyone has them floating around it would be a help too.  Thanks |

Hi Stanley, I don't have any photos of them, and won't be back in there, sorry (unless I bid on something and win! but that will be too late) - if someone else heads in, perhaps they can look for you, assuming you're not in Chch? They will be photographed and listed in due course by Smiths, though.
Cheers, Steve

 Actually, I have one photo of the model card from it (I took the odd photo of badges I couldn't easily read - this was fortunately one of them), R-741 - and yes, definitely a Canadian Rogers-Majestic. This is also a zoom in of the best shot I got of it - hopefully it's enough to help... Cheers, Steve |
