   This is a Pacific set I picked up recently - its an oddity, given the cabinet from 1933/34 and the chassis from who knows when - the dial is the 1935 BC-band one used on the model 15 - although its not a 15. Lineup is 6A7, 6D6, 6B7, 42, 80 same as the model 15... Anyone recognise it? Its going to need a little love... Cheers Steve |

 Just thought I'd add that the arc dial version has the tuning shaft hole above the line of the other two - while my one is below. Its possible its been converted, but the chassis looks like its factory.  And here is the underside in case this helps identify it. Cheers Steve |

Just a quick update on this radio - I spent some time working through the circuitry in this chassis and comparing various aspects of what I found to existing RCNZ schematics - turns out its almost 100% matched to the early version of the model 15, although the layout is quite different given this chassis is longer and not as wide. I've mapped out all the components and differences to the schematic so I can strip it and rebuild it.   The cabinet is another matter - electronics I can do, woodwork I'm a bit klutzy with... so watch this space on that one... Steve |
