Hi,
Try looking on the inside side walls of the wood cabinet. Sometime Rogers rubber stamped a model name which could then be linked to a chassis number to get the schematic.

Hi Ed,
I checked it, but no stamp found.It seems to be a 58 model, but no schematic found too. Thanks.

Hello,
I have the same Radio in worse condition. It came with the original tube layout card in the back. It says Majestic Radio ” Richelieu” Model. No model number given.

‘Morning;

It’s 9:30 here on ” The Rock “.

Nostalgiaair has that radio listed on his site.
The info appears to be from the RCC manuals.

Good luck with your project.

Hi Peter & John.

Pete, if it is possible may I have a photo of the original tube layout card ?

John: I got the schematic from Nostaligiair.

Thanks to both of you for your HELP.

I have the RCC hard cover books and I can look it up . If you need a clear schematic I may be able to help you.
Rogers used a lot of names for their radios , and this one is a type 52.
I know it is hard sometimes , to find a certain model especially when it only has a type written on the chassis
and no name on the cabinet.

Hi Dan,

Thanks for your help.
Here is my personnel email address:
It is very confused about my Rogers. The tube are 80 – 41M – 6k7 – 75M -6A8 and the model seems to be an Papineai -Jacques Cartier, may be type 52. I hope you’ll find the right schematic. Thanks again !!

Hi,
The Jacques Cartier has a type 58 chassis and that is the type on your nameplate.
That chassis uses 88M, 75M, 6A7M, 41M and 80 tubes. That is the proper line up for your chassis.
The discrepancies are probably tube substitutions since some of the Rogers “M” tubes are hard to find.
The sub for an 88M is a 6K7 and the sub for the 6A7M is a 6A8.
Ed.

I will agree with Ed. The Rogers tubes usually have subs and it is nice to have a list of what subs for what.
I have ran into this many times when the tubes don’t line up with the schematic. In that case I look up the sub for the proper tube and see if someone had put in the sub.
I think you are on the right track now.
