Philips Antique radio that has the serial Number 51914
The model label is long gone , & I don't have a pic to show you, but I'm just curious as to what model this radio is

Let us know what valves are in it.

Hi there, larry was asking on behalf of me, I only discrovered this site the other day, I hae pics which I will upload soon.

I have not pulled the chassis out to take pics yet but I will do in the future.

Anyhow, details on the valves:

two with the top cap attached to the tuning cap.

- mullard ic7 g, uncaged
- Radiotron, ??? cannot be read, caged 7 pins

Immediately behind speaker:

1K7 G radiotron, caged

Beside speaker (left side if looking from the back):
miniwatt ID5 GP, caged in a shield that is the same shape as the valve.

Beside the power in: radiotron ??? cannot be read, 7 pins, uncaged

Pics will follow in a minute.

Going by Radiomuseum, here are some possibilities:

Model 94VB (1939), console lowboy cabinet, broadcast band only, those 3 valves plus 1L5G

Model ? (1940), table set, broadcast and shortwave, those 3 valves plus KL4G

Model 3440 (1941), table set, broadcast and shortwave, those 3 valves plus KL4G

some pics here, not sure if I have linked them correctly.

thanks for your help, this s a long term project waiting for me to be off my L plates on fixing older radios, I have done a few old TV's in the past, but only recently taken a serious interest in radio.

I will make a thread sometime soon with my other radios in my collection.

Here are the 5 valve options from Radiomuseum:

Model 3250 (1943) 1D5GP, 1C6 or 1C7G, 1D5GP, 1K7G, KL4G, broadcast and shortwave, table set.

Model 3050A (1945), 2 x 1D5GP, 1C7G, 1D5GP, 1K7G, 1L5G, broadcast and shortwave, table set.

These are sets powered by dry batteries or a 6 volt synchronous vibrator unit.

How is yours powered?
