Links

This page contains links to many other Vintage Radio websites, mainly dedicated to the receivers in many of the well-known collections.

Australian Vintage Radio Society
http://avrs.org.au/
A fairly new vintage radio club accepting new members, issuing a bi-monthly newsletter and offering the usual services you would expect from such an organisation - access to a valve and radio component bank, swap meets, regular society meetings, etc.

Australian Vintage Wireless Parts
http://www.southcom.com.au/~pauledgr/
A nice uncluttered website which the owner claims to be the first of its kind in Australia and since its been here since 1996 it's most likely a valid claim. This site contains information on just about every make and model that graced the valve era.

Australian Vintage Wireless Parts
http://goznet.com/
By popular demand, AVW is back. A website whose owner has lots of spare parts and some very nice receivers for sale.

Best Radios
http://bestradios.info/
Rod Smith is back with a new domain and a new site. Well worth a look.

Communications Museum
http://www.shlrc.mq.edu.au/~robinson/museum/
Part of the personal website of an electronics engineer. Many radios are pictured here along with other unrelated equipment.

The Historial Radio Society of Australia
http://hrsa.asn.au/
Based in Mt Waverley, Victoria, The HRSA is probably the most eminent association dealing with the subject of Vintage Radio. I really should try and regain my membership, they have some pretty invaluable resources and membership also lets you participate in the swapmeets where receivers can be acquired at fairly reasonable prices.

Historical Wireless Society of South East Queensland
http://www.hws.org.au/
The Historical Wireless Society of South East Queensland is a well-organised association with a similar role to the HRSA.

Peter's Radio Gallery
http://members.ozemail.com.au/~pebarhug/shome.htm
Another site dedicated to a collector's wares. This site has a very impressive display of Fisk Radiolettes and some associated Radiolette novelty items.

Phil Storr's Radio Projects
http://www.philipstorr.id.au/radio/
A site dedicated to the restoration of some of Australia's most collectable receivers.

Radio Collectors
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/radiocollectors/
A group of radio collectors centralised on Yahoo!7, a leading social networking website.

Reg Gauci's Radios
http://gauci.org/Reg'sVintageRadio/
Reg Gauci's vintage radio website, lots of pictures.

Vintage Wireless
http://vintagewireless.byethost12.com/
A new website covering the restoration of those classic late 1940's and early 1950's four-valve mantel sets.

Tutorials

These tutorials contain a lot of worthwhile information relating to specific aspects of vintage radio. I recommend a read of these though some of them are quite large. You might need a cuppa tea and a few hours to get through them all in one hit.

Restorations

Back by popular demand are a few articles of mine that deal with restoration of vintage radios. As I edit them for clarity they will be republished.

Glossary

Vintage Radio's glossary contains the definitions for dozens of words and phrases.
