My new Stromberg Carlson model 255L

[Dan Walker]

I had someone phone me ,saying they needed to get rid of this radio.
I picked it up at a reasonable price, not knowing if it worked or not.
It is a 13 tubes top of the line radio, and so far I have replaced the five major electrolytic caps,
and I can get stations. There are a lot of other electrolytic caps in the radio from 4 to 12 Mf, and I will get to them.
The cabinet is all there although someone had painted the top brown,but I was going to refinish the cabinet anyway.
I am in need of one small tuning knob.
The radio is a monster to move and quite well built.
The guys on ARF say that it will blow away the top of the line RCA Philco and Zenith.
We will see after I get it done. it is very well built.
