Description: Realtone 9 Transistor TR1948 1963 Blue Serviced Works Good Vintage VTG The radio works like new and is in very lightly used condition. If you’d like to read my description of the work I’ve done that has restored this radio to full performance, please read on: This radio came to me 11-20-2024 completely silent. I disassembled the radio and found that one wire that goes to the speaker was disconnected. It came loose because the speaker was rattling around. I secured the speaker, reconnected the wire. The radio worked, but had distorted audio. I replace all the capacitors in most of the radio I sell, and of the four this radio has, two were open/shorted. Recapped, the radio was restored to full performance. Next I cleaned the volume control and checked the radio’s alignment. Repaired, it’s loud. Volume control goes smoothly from totally silent to blazing overload loud. It produces a clean and clear sound. I was able to tune the local weak stations in my area I use to confirm a radio is working correctly. It is. The local clear channel stations in my area come in loud and clear. It’s clean, reflective, and shows very little signs of use. Nothing missing. Nothing broken. No chips. No cracks. The cabinet does show very light scuffing where it has been inserted in and out of its case. It comes with its original leather carry case that is in good condition. It also doubles as a “Kick-stand”. Please see my photos. I service almost all the vintage radios I sell on eBay. Serviced = I clean the volume control, check the radio’s alignment, and check its current draw. It looks good. Collector quality. I ship USPS Flat Rate. A tracking number will be provided the following business day after purchase. I will combine shipping when applicable, so please see my other cool old radios for sale. -karl : )_
