Early D-104


Astatic moved from Youngstown Ohio to Conneaut in 1943. Dates it to before that year.

The orange sticker inside the cartridge suggests "8-22-35".

It should have the four holes around the body for a "ring and spring" mount. Looks as if some kind of rivet head is visible where those holes would be in the pic. Wikipedia says those holes went away in 1937.

Pretty dern old.

Yeah, it has the four holes. Sadly, one of the rivets for the nameplate was mia. Just have a screw in there for now holding the plate down. Pretty neat to find one as early as this one seems!

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
