I foolishly tried to clean the dial of my radio and it wiped half the stations away.
Anyone have an AIRZONE with round Dial that could be photographed for template for new Dial?
Appart from this the radio now works fine with all caps replaced and cabinet repaired.

Cheers
Gary

You'd have to specify the model Gary. Airzone made quite a few models with a round dial, including the one in the masthead imageof this website though most had the stations printed on a celluloid background.

Brad,
It is an Airzone 1152a Console radio.
This one has two glass sheets with the stations on the glass and sandwiched between them.
I have a picture of my destroyed one if needed.

Cheers

Gary

The owner of this site might be able to help if he can be tracked down.

Just for info.

I have tried to contact this person a number of times because of his tin portables. The email just bounces.

I have a "tin portable" with a magic eye if that is any use.

I got one of them as well. I havent restored it yet but might be in need of some parts.

email me if you want to sell it and we can discuss it off line.

EDIT:

STC830 - Are you selling your radio on ebay at the moment?

Mine is not for sale - the right hand bakelite end is cracked. It worked quite well last time it was turned on, though needed a knock - has a poor connection somewhere. It has the 240V cord which is often missing.

No - this STC 830 is the radio mentioned in
