Soooo... This is an infectious hobby...
Found the frequently mentioned Sophia Princess 274B and a Chatham 5R4WGA potato-masher (?)... The 274B is currently doing great things to my music..
Nearing endgame-station, for now...
I want to congratulate you on nearing endgame. And I'm sure your wallet is very happy too!
And I'm finally approaching end game, I think, with this latest acquisition, a Telefunken RGN4004. Fortunately for your wallet, I seriously doubt this will work in your Woo. And I'm sure your wallet will be very happy. This is a 4-Volt rectifier drawing 4 Amps of heater current. It was manufactured in Berlin in 1937 and notice instead of mica spacers, it uses glass beads to keep the filaments aligned.
And it puts on quite a show at night. With mesh plates, the hot cathodes are clearly visible.
Anyway, it really doesn't belong in this thead, but I thought some here might enjoy the "eye candy".
