Hi there,
I resulted to coming to a forum as I literally found no relevant information on the Internet about the Ferris Manual Car Radio: Model 1500 which I have found/obtained from my Grandfather.

It has not been opened and is new in it's box along with its instruction manuals, yet I cannot seem to find any relevant information about it or its existence among the Ferris Bros. products.

Would be very much appreciated if anyone could help me with this.

Thank you

Henry

Hi Henry,

Can you take some photos and send to Brad for upload.
This may help in its identification.

New in box is wonderful but do not apply power to it to see if it works until we see a circuit. There are components that will have very likely failed due to it not being powered for an indeterminate time
