UE RADIO CLASSIFIED 41e°

EDITOR'S COMMENTS Whatever the reason — April Fool's Day, a

touch of spring between snowstorms — some-how the April issue lends itself to a touch of lighter fare. We begin with radio entertainment, which is one of the reasons old radios are still around to collect. As our mysterious cover suggests, "The Shad-

ow" and other characters like him revolutionized home entertainment in the 1930s and 1940s. Radio created a magical "theater of the mind." Geoffrey Brittingham's illustrations and Fred Geer's story remind us of those exciting times when we sat rapt in front of the radio listening to Terry and the Pirates, Amos and Andy, Fibber McGee and Molly, or any of hundreds of other radio shows. Fred and Geoffrey's presentation may inspire

both young and old collectors to make radio show recordings an integral part of their displays. Lis-tening to an old show could be a new form of entertainment for your guests. Another of Ron Boucher's Gridley's Radio

Shop cartoons fits well into the lighter tone of an April issue. Did you know that Harman Kardon, the high

fidelity manufacturer, had roots back in the "3-dialer" days of radio? After Mike Parker found a Kardon TRF battery set at a radio meet in 1989, he wondered about a possible connection. His curiosity led him on a 4-year adventure resulting in a well researched, significant article on Kar-don history. Hum in A.G. sets is sometimes very difficult to

correct, and Chester Gehman tells a story of one of his most difficult hum challenges. A good tech-nical article like this one reminds repairers that persistence pays in the search for an elusive solution. In Radio Ramblings..., Gerald Schneider con-

tributes his thoughts on dealers and the "feeding frenzies" at meets. We hope that his comments will trigger more feedback on these topics from our readers. Once again the Estes auctioneers report on a

remarkable auction, this one grossing $32,000. Several not-often-seen sets were included: the RCA Radiola RS (a Radiola Sr. with a 1-tube amplifier), a Radiola Grand (a 4-tube set in a lift-top phonograph-style cabinet), and a Federal Jr. crystal set. Photo Review this month includes sets from

the 1920s to the 1950s. A 1-tube Tr-City set is shown as well as a 20-tube portable television set from 1949. And a late 1930s Wurlitzer radio, built into a table, is "out-of-sight." (See our Janu-ary 1991 issue for other "out-of-sight" sets.) Additional information is presented on the Tri-

angle Electric set discussed in the October 1993

issue of A.R.C. Apparently, the set also was sold by Howard Radio. Hints and a question on resto-ration, as well as comments and suggestions about A.R.C., appear on our Radio Miscellanea page. The hundreds of comments that we re-ceive each month give us the opportunity to print a representative selection from time to time. The Eliminator. To continue the "lighter fare,"

once again the publishers of The Eliminator have chosen Antique Radio Classified to print their annual parody on the radio collecting scene. In addition to Dr. Radio's regular column of restora-tion hints, The Eliminator research staff has included an exciting find — an advertisement for the National Radio Collecting Institute. Both old and new collectors might find this correspon-dence course helpful. Charles Muller's interesting article on the Phule

Lamp Co.'s duo-tube seemed to be an appropri-ate addition to The Eliminator section. The Eliminator staff is accepting contributions

for next year's edition, so send your contributions to either A.R.C. or the A.C. Radio Renegades, 3426 Coldstream Ct., Lexington, KY 40517. Our Tenth Year. Founded in 1984, Antique

Radio Classified is about to celebrate ten years of growth and achievement. A special 10th anni-versary issue is planned for June, and readers are invited to contribute comments, letters and articles for possible inclusion in this issue. The deadline is April 20, so get out your pencil and tell us how A.R.C. has affected your collecting and radio life in the last ten years. Radio Events. Nearly three dozen old radio

collecting events tempt the collector this month; two are 3-day events, both occurring from April 29 to May 1. The first is the 15th annual show in Houston, Texas, which includes auctions, a con-test, a banquet and a flea market. The second, the Dayton, Ohio, Hamvention, is the largest of the hundreds of amateur radio events each year in the U. S. With nearly 300 indoor exhibitors and 2,600 outdoor flea market spaces, this meet draws over 35,000 attendees, and yes, old radios are to be found there. A.R.C. and a number of other A.R.C. advertisers will be at Dayton. We, along with New Wireless Pioneers, will be at inside booths #206 and #207. Stop by and say, "Hi!" Happy collecting.

John V. Terrey, Editor

ON THE COVER Geoffrey Brittingham's illustrations, inspired by

the early days of radio, appear both on our cover and on page 5. Although not a collector, Geoffrey likes to portray old radios in his work — a definite plus for A.R.C. We gratefully acknowledge Geof-frey's contribution to this issue.

VINTAGE BROADCASTING

The Golden Age of Radio Entertaiment The Pre-Video Days of Theater of the Mind

BY FRED GEER ILLUSTRATIONS BY GEOFFREY BRITTINGHAM

In August 1993, A.R.C. was surprised and delighted to receive in the mail Geoffrey Britting-ham's radio-related illustrations. They came with the explanation that, although Geoffrey is not a collector, he loves the way old radios look and often uses them in his work as an illustrator. In an inspired moment, we remembered Fred Geer's vast collection of old radio shows. Fred, a regu-lar contributor to A.R.C., was happy to write on one of his favorite topics. And thus, we have a good example of the fun we have putting A.R.C. articles together. [Editor]

As I lay on the floor, the wondrous Theater of the Mind came to life in the dim orange glow of my radio's dial. Words flowed from its loudspeak-er, painting pictures in my mind. I heard the words, "Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men?" A darkly shrouded, misty figure, who in the Orient had learned invisibility by clouding men's minds, flashed across the stage of my theater. "The Shadow" was on the air! I saw him with my imagination. Radio entertainment exercises that imagina-

tion with word pictures. It does not rely on the twisted interpretations of others, as does televi-sion. Radio plays are no more gory than your own past experience. Radio shows sold radios! There are many ex-

planations about why radio show recordings were made. Sponsors wanted a copy for their files, or a radio station wanted to broadcast a show at a later time. Beginning in the late 1920s, many network broadcasts were saved on 33 'A rpm, 16" disks or on 78 rpm, 12" disks. Had it not been for disk recording, all the shows would be lost in space. With the advent of television, great libraries of

radio shows went to various places like U.C.L.A. and the Library of Congress. Station members or engineers saved discarded disks also. My interest in old radio shows began seventeen

years ago when I first heard Bill Sabis' weekly two-hour Theater of the Mind on a Gainesville, Florida, FM station. I soon built a special "cut to frequency" antenna that brought the station in like a local. Now reception was so good that I could make first class recorded copies of the old shows.

THE GOLDEN AGE

Newspapers of the 1920s illustrate that radio's first ten years were experimental. Nevertheless, it was still exciting to tune in to voices miles away delivering a dry talk or to hear the local "canary"

warbling a hit song. Then in 1926, NBC's red and blue networks expanded their programming. More professional talent was affordable, thus giving the nation access to the best in music and drama. At the dawn of radio's "Golden Age," live music

made up 95 percent of network broadcasting. That is why Amos and Andy, a comedy series, took the nation by storm. In 1931, people tuned to NBC at 7 and 11 P.M. EST jUSt to hear their antics. Movie theater owners began to equip the-aters with radios, fearing people would stay home just to hear Amos and Andy. CBS produced Fly-ing Stories, True Detective Mysteries, and True Story House to break up the all-music format. Radio's "Golden Age" began when radio plays,

drama, soap operas, and news took precedence over music. By the mid-1930s, networks were producing all kinds of programs. Can you imag-ine a half hour of Fred Astaire tap dancing? Most enduring radio shows were daytime soap operas, comedy and variety shows — all produced with word pictures. No, we did not all sit mesmerized, staring at the radio, as we do at TV.

HOOKED ON RADIO AT AN EARLY AGE

An older boy down the street showed me how to tune in to Terry and the Pirates. He wanted me to listen so we could playact like the characters on the radio. We even constructed a periscope with a cardboard tube and two compact mirrors. Now we could spy on imagined enemies. I don't know how Mom put up with all the distorted sound effects used on our kiddie show. Little did she realize her five year old son was hooked on radio for life. Radio covered every aspect of entertainment.

But as a child, my favorite programs were 15-minute serials. Living across the street from school had some advantages. Recess and a full hour for lunch let me hear daytime soap operas. From 10 A.M. to 6 P.M., the four networks del-

uged the airwaves with 15-minute programs mar-keting a better life to the housewife — entertain-ing her as she went about her self-imposed tasks, selling her new ideas and products! Aunt Jenny gave recipes. Kate Smith sang and told the news. Helen Trent searched for love even though she was over 35. Our Gal Sunday was looking for happiness. Ma Perkins, with her trials and tribula-tions, passed on her philosphy in the little lum-bering town of Rushville Center. One program dominates any discussion of old

radio shows — Orson Wells' Mercury Theater Production of War of the Worlds, broadcast on

4

Halloween, October 31, 1938. Its opening music format was interrupted for a fake newscast that informed listeners that a New Jersey town had been invaded by Martians. Many who tuned in late thought they were listening to dance band music and believed the fake newscast. All hell broke loose in listeners' minds across America. Today, this classic is a rather long, drab experience. A 15-minute program had about seven to nine

minutes of story, and the rest was the sponsor's time, less the opening and closing signatures. Selling the sponsor's product took five to six

minutes. Ovaltine, Little Orphan Annie's sponsor and still sold today, cashed in with this unique sales approach. In 1931, Little Orphan Annie's writers incorpo-

rated into the story line an image of Annie using a "Sebring" pottery mug to make her Ovaltine. Now, wouldn't you know, when the sponsor got his hands on the mike, he told you how you could get a mug? A mere twenty-five cents in coin brought you a three-day supply of Ovaltine and one of Annie's mugs.

(Golden Age of Radio Entertainment, continued) A BOX TOP AND A DIME

After-school programs were The Lone Rang-er, Superman, Captain Midnight, Terry and the Pirates, Jack Armstrong the All-American Boy, Tom Mix and Space Patrol. A box top and ten cents in coin could get a Saturn ring that glowed in the dark or a Tom Mix siren ring whose brass construction turned your finger green. Superman fans got a model war plane in every box of Kellogg's Pep. Secret message decoders were a big seller because at the end of each thrilling episode a secret message would be sent. Only those with the decoder would know what would happen next. (A perfect example is a scene from the 1983 movie "A Christmas Story.") The few radio premiums that I ordered took an

eternity arriving. Seems like the word picture paint-ed by the sponsor was always more dramatic than the actual object held in my little hand. Strange how imagined word pictures could get out of control in the dim orange glow cast by my radio's dial light.

TEN "MUST-HEAR" SHOWS

A list of "must-hear" old radio shows includes the following: the serial Lights Out!, with the epi-sodes "Drop Dead!" or "The Worms"; any James Stewart show such as The Six Shooter, Sam Spade Detective with Howard Duff; Quiet Please — Thing on the Fourble Board, Dimension X — There Will Come Soft Rain; Escape — Leinnen-gen vs. the Ants, a word picture of biting ants. Other must-hear shows are any Fibber McGee and Molly show; Suspense — On A Country Road, November 16, 1950: X Minus One — Star-bright, April 10, 1956; and CBS Workshop — Fourteen Hundred Eighty-Nine Words.

Fred Geer's radio collecting began in 1953 with a Shure microphone and a 1929 console, the RCA R-32. Several years ago, he noted a missing link in his 300+ collection — the radio shows that made radio. He now owns around 2,000 old-time programs, which he can broadcast to any radio in the house. Through his articles, he enjoys sharing various aspects of collecting and radio history.

"Antique Radio Classified" invites its readers to contribute letters and information for inclusion in "Radio Miscellanea" and elsewhere in the magazine. The topic should be of general interest and sent to A.R.C., P.O. Box 2, Carlisle, MA 01741. All material submitted should be verified for accuracy and may be edited for publication, which is not guaranteed. See the masthead for more details.

Restoration Tip Dear Editor: Here's a restoration tip for weathered-looking Zenith

Trans-Oceanics: Get them nice, black, and satin shiny again with black shoe polish and polish the leatherette finish just a little, as you would your shoes. My H500 came out great! Hope you find this tip worth printing. Harvey E.Faulkner, Jr., Newark. DE

On Plastic Repair and Pot Metal Dear Editor: Dwight Baker (A. R.C. March 1994) mentions plastic

parts which appear to have "melted." This and other similar effects are well known to collectors of tele-phones and toys, which tend to have a lot of plastic parts in them. While some plastic materials remain dimen-sionally stable (e.g. Bakelite), others, such as cellulose acetate, can start to bend like a banana or even dissolve in the atmosphere. The cradle forks of some British telephones were moulded in a form of black celluloid at one period and these were very prone to dribbling away. Sadly, there is very little collectors can do except look for similar parts which have not deteriorated. I don't think there is anything you can do to reverse the process. Recently, you also had some correspondence on pot

metal (AR C. Feb. 1994). We call it mazak or zamak over here in England. The mazak disease is well known among collectors of diecast cars and HO-gauge trains and can be heartbreaking. Sometimes it causes diecast parts to crack or contort, other times to become so brittle that they self-destruct to small pieces and grey dust in your fingers, I remember taking a rare item in mint condition out of its box, and it just crumbled in my hands — and the store owner forced me to pay for it! Mazak was even used to make gears and pinions in models, and, of course, there is no way you can straighten these once they have distorted. The root cause was definitely impurities in the origi-

nal mix of zinc and other metals. The story one oldtimer told me was that the workers tossed the silver paper from their packets of cigarettes into the melt, thinking that every bit of metal helped. Andrew Emmerson, 71 Falcutt Way, Northhampton,

three-times per year, British publication covering old tele-vision technology and programming. A year's subscrip-tion, airmail to the U.S. is $25.00; there is a 5% surcharge for credit card transactions.

Bakelite Repair Info Sought Dear Editor: I recently acquired a 1920s battery set which has a

hole drilled in the front Bakelite panel. Does anyone know how to repair it? Any information would be greatly appreciated. Robert Nicholson, Manilla, Ontario, Canada

Readers Com ment about A.R.C. A selection of letters received: Dear Editor: I have been reading with interest the complaints about

the rate hikes. My thoughts are that considehng the specialized nature of the publication, the amount of work that goes into compiling all of the ads every month, and the costs of publishing, the magazine is a bargain. On top of all that, the ads that I have submitted have been run on time and without error. Keep up the good work. Jon D. Andreasen, Newton, NJ

Dear Editor: Although I really enjoy your publication, and have for

years, when my subscription runs out next year, I will not renew due to the high cost. I hope you are able to find a way to reduce the cost before then. Steve Pazar, Santa Rosa, CA

Dear Editor: Thank you very much! I enjoy the magazine just the

way it is, Don't let comments about nit-picky things get you down. Page for page, A.R.C. is hands down the best source of information about our hobby, at a price that is fair when compared to other specialty magazines. I especially like the recent evolution of the "Radio Miscel-lanea" column as a forum for the exchange of ideas which, even if controversial, touch on issues which need to be addressed if our hobby is to mature Michael Dalzell, Bensalem, PA

Dear Editor I share some of the remarks by those complaining of

the ever increasing cost of your publication, since lam on Social security. However, in relation to almost every other cost, the increase doesn't seem unjustified. At age eighty, I have moved out most of my precious

antiques, but the articles and the ads in the magazine bring me much pleasure, as I relive the early days of my radio experiences. Again, congratulations on the apparent success and

growth of ARC., and thanks for bringing this service to so many needy collectors. Wes Chatellier, Baton Rouge, LA

A few more comments from readers: Enclosed find 2-year renewal. Your articles make

the "high" price worthwhile! Dick Parks, Arlington, VA

... I am enclosing my check for what I hope is the correct amount. If it is more than enough, keep it. I enjoy A.R.C. and am in awe of what a good job you do. (Mrs.) Billie McBride, Redwood City, CA

... Many thanks. Fine magazine. I'm only sorry I didn't discover it earlier. Stanley Siegel, New York, NY

... Just a word of praise — each time I've run an advertisement in A.R.C. I have been able to find what I was searching for. Thanks! Chris Russo, Sea Br ght, NJ

WITH THE COLLECTORS

The Kardon Radio Story BY MIKE PARKER

One of the more fascinating aspects of radio collecting, is researching the history of each set acquired. Questions arise such as "Who made this radio?...Where and when was it made?..Why do I like il?"...etc. The many recent books by various authors within our hobby have been a great help. Knowledge is also gained through a strong monthly publication like A.R.C. One of my pastimes is collecting and restoring

to operation seldom-seen brands of factory-made radios of the 1920s and 1930s. In my research, when I have asked the "experts" for advice, I have gotten many dead-end answers. This kind of response just adds to the mystery, and can be as exciting as making the radios play again. Of course the "experts" cannot be blamed. Informa-tion about many odd brand radios may never be discovered. The field is wide open for research! I was never a serious radio collector until at-

tending a Northwest Vintage Radio Society (NWVRS) swap meet, in November of 1989. Among the items for sale was the somewhat ordinary looking 3-dial 1920s battery set shown in Figure 1. The lift top was up, and the green spiderweb coils, the tuning condensers, and the silver balloon-shaped tubes caught my eye. The shiny black front panel was simply engraved with the word "Carnival" in the lower right corner. Closer inspection of the cabinet revealed excel-lent craftmanship inside, where the legend "Kar-don Trade Mark, New York" was etched. Kardon was a familiar name associated with

many fine audio products. I began to ask myself a couple of those "questions": "Did the Haripn Kar-don Company evolve from radios that the Kardon

Company made in the 19205?...and..."Was this really a company with a lineage traceable to the early days of radio production?" I could think of nothing else but that radio set

for the rest of the swap meet. The radio did not sell at the meet, and I was undecided about buying it. However, I ended up chasing the owner home after the meet and buying the set!

ON THE KARDON TRAIL

Curiosity finally got the best of me, and I wrote a letter to Sidney Harman of Harman Internation-al, describing the radio and posing my questions about the company's history. After a while, I re-ceived a letter thanking me for my interest, and saying that he would forward my letter to his old ex-partner, Bernard Kardon. About a month went by, and in the meantime, I

found another Kardon battery set in a local antique store. This was also a 5-tube, 3-dial TRF called a "Kardonstrip," shown in Figure 2, which utilizes brass strip and rivet construction. I marveled at how more than one of these obscure New York radios could have ended up out here in Portland, Oregon! So I bought it and have not found another Kardon since, although I am always looking. Not long after that, I received a letter from

Bernard Kardon, a registered Professional Engi-neer from New Rochelle, New York. Yes, he was the Kardon of Harman Kardon fame and was very curious about the fact that I possessed and was interested in radios made in the 1920s by his father, Peter Kardon. Upon placing an ad for Kardon info in ARC.. I

soon heard from Alan Douglas, creator of the excellent series, Radio Manufacturers of the 1920's. Alan didn't have much Kardon info, but very generously sent me copies of Kardon's ra-dio activities from 1924 to 1926, outlined in the trade publication, Radio Retailing and Jobber. He also sent me copies of a 1923 Kardon booklet written by R.P. Clarkson advertising radio kit parts and audio transformers with recommended "hook-ups." See Figure 3. I then forwarded copies of this information to

Bernard Kardon, along with photos of my Kardon sets, and waited for his reply. He soon wrote back flabbergasted that a young [?] collector on the West Coast was interested in the Kardon family history. This prompted Kardon to do a complete biography on his father, a project that took several months. His recollections and those of other family members surfaced. Many early family photos, including the one shown in Figure 4, as well as anecdotes about Peter Kardon's manufacturing endeavors, were discovered. Ber-nard Kardon and his wife Anna were declared family heroes for making this effort, and I was declared an honorary family hero for providing the impetus to this research! In November 1992, I received a call from Mr.

Kardon saying that he and his wife were flying to Seattle, renting an auto, and driving through Port-land, Oregon, en route to California to visit rela-tives. He said that they would like to stop and

of "Pop's Freshman Masterpiece Clone," Mr. Kar-don remarked that he remembered at age 9 as-sembling the Kardon audio transformers, shown in Figure 5. He and his brother Nate were paid a penny a transformer! The total earned was $9, paid by check and given to Mom for "safekeep-ing"! Often, the whole family would sit around the kitchen table and assemble radio parts. Much to my sorrow, Bernard Kardon died on

I have learned from this experience that much knowledge can be gathered by con-tacting the right people and being persistent but patient. Asking the right questions stimulates in-terest and leads to a deeper understanding.

PETER KARDON 1886-1948

Born Piotr Kardonsky, May 13, 1886, in Odes-sa, Russia, Peter Kardon, pictured in Figure 6, attended a machinist trade school in Odessa and became a toolmaker. In 1905, at age 19, he emigrated to America.

Figure 5. The Kardon audio transformer, Unit No. 604, the kind Bernard Kardon assembled at age 9 for a penny each.

He settled in Elizabeth, New Jersey, and worked as a special machinist for the Singer Sewing Machine Company. In 1909, he met and married his wife Sarah, and they had five children in the next seven years — Frances, Nathan, Bernard, Bessie and Leonard. Peter finally left Singer and worked in the lino-

type business. Later, he joined the Underwood Typewriter Company where he was credited for many improvements in the product line. By 1915, Peter had opened his own business,

Premier Special Machine and Tool Co., located on Canal Street in New York City. During World War I, he landed a large contract making rifle chamber gauges. After the war, Peter and some partners went into the business of manufacturing typewrit-ers, only to lose all in the 1921 financial crash. At that time, radio broadcasting was booming,

and Peter became very interested in the new technology. He joined the Bronx Radio Club, read everything available, and began building his own radios, earning a reputation to be reckoned with.

(Continued on following page)

(The Kardon Radio Story, continued) He experimented with auto radio installation, fit-ting the works into the car complete with rotating loop on the roof. However, he was stymied by the ignition noise and soon gave the idea up. By 1923, he had set up his own radio compa-

ny, Kardon Products Inc., which built subassem-blies and audio transformers and sold radio kits. He rented a loft at 101 Varick Street, New York City, but the family worked at home also. He soon found fierce competition in this business and forged ahead technically by designing his own superheterodyne receiver. In 1924, he began manufacturing complete

radio sets and moved to larger quarters at 451 Greenwich St., New York City. There, he started building "Kompentrol" 8-tube superhets, in addi-tion to TRF sets. He later switched to the 3-dial -Carnival" TRF model. The reasons for this switch were twofold: first, to cash in on the recent suc-cess of the new Freshman Masterpiece 3-dial, and second, to settle a lawsuit. As an article in Radio Retailing and Jobber of

August 1925 states, "Kardon sold one superhet and got sued!" The story was that Kardon had abandoned the manufacture of superheterodyne receivers sometime before a Westinghouse "spy" dropped into the factory to purchase one of the surplus superhets. At the time, both Westinghouse and RCA were well known for initiating legal pro-ceedings against any company manufacturing su-perhet receivers. Peter Kardon suddenly found him-self being sued for alleged patent infringement. In turn, Peter filed a counterclaim for $25,000 in loss-es he had suffered in the development of his dis-continued version of their carefully guarded radio circuit. In the end, Westinghouse dropped the suit. By September 1925, Kardon Products was in

bankruptcy, but Peter, undaunted, had designed the new "Kardonstrip" TRF set using riveted brass or bronze strips, which eliminated some wiring and soldering. The $35 set was manufactured for $7 and jobbed for $12. Peter also designed un-usual lever-operated rheostats that moved in hor-izontal front panel slots. Although Peter had applied for patents on the

strip construction, this method was soon imitated by others, and infringement suits were discussed but never initiated.

Early in 1926, Peter joined with James L. Dix-on of Tobacco Products Corp. Initially called the Kardon Radio Corp., the company started pro-duction in a new factory at 294 E. 137th Street, The Bronx, New York. Soon, the Dixon Syndicate took full control and changed the name to Diva Radio Corp. Figure 7 shows a Diva De Luxe No. 999 as featured in a typical Diva ad claiming that this set is the "World's Largest Medium Priced Radio." Later, Kardon bowed out of the company after a financial dispute with Dixon. Diva continued into 1927 making the Kardon-

strip model with a new front panel. Two other TRF models were also made, one of which was designed by Peter with unique plug-in compo-nents. It was clearly ahead of its time. The Diva line of radios used Peter's strip construction, shown in Figure 8. None sold well, and Diva was out of business by the 1927-28 season. Peter, soured by the radio business, was still

not discouraged with the technology. He went on to build amplifiers and sound installations for the new talking movie industry. He became a Loftin-White licensee and did well until Western Electric dominated this field. During the early years of the Depression, Pe-

ter and some friends had gone into the distressed merchandise business, with a store located, once again, on Canal Street, New York City. He stayed in this business until the late 1930s and became famous for moving many types of goods. The rumor was that Peter had known A. Atwater Kent from the earlier radio days, and that, around 1936, Kent sold much of his factory test equip-ment to Kardon for liquidation. Around 1940, Peter went back to his first love,

a machine shop. He again used the "Premier" name — this time, the Premier Instrument Corp. He soon landed several defense contracts and during World War II made gun cartridge dies. Later, unknowingly, he made classified radar parts contracted through Phi!co. Peter used a unique method of hardening precision steel parts by drop-ping them through a high frequency RF coil into a quenching bath. Peter and his son Bernard worked on a contract

for the U.S. Army Signal Corps manufacturing cold weather cameras; thus, the Kardon camera was born. Arriving late in the war years, many of these cameras bearing the Kardon name were sold outside the military. Peter's son-in-law, Irving Gross, refined the camera, which sold until 1954. By 1947, Peter Kardon was in ill health and

died at home on Christmas Day in 1948.

BERNARD KARDON — 1914-1993

Bernard Peterson Kardon, pictured in Figure 9, was born January 8, 1914, in New York City, where he was raised with two brothers and two sisters. He was an adventuresome child and showed an interest in science at an early age. By 1923, he looked forward to Saturdays when he and his brother Nathan would travel to their fa-ther's radio factory and assemble parts. After-ward they would complete the day by going to a restaurant for dinner. Thus began a working rela-tionship with his father, Peter, which continued for all of their years. together. Bernard married Anna Jaffee on December 8,

1933. In time, they had a son, Joshua, and a daughter, Emily, both now living in California. Bernard Kardon studied engineering at Cooper

Union, but quit before getting a degree. He went to work for the David Bogen Co., well known makers of audio and intercom equipment, and soon oe-came Chief Engineer and Production Manager. During this time, his father had formed the Premier Instrument Corp., and Bernie also served as Chief Engineer for this company. During World War II while at Bogen, Bernie

designed underwater sound equipment for the Armed Forces. While at Premier, he helped de-velop the Kardon cold weather camera for the Signal Corps. The camera was equipped for op-eration at 67 degrees below zero. In 1945, the Kardons moved to New Rochelle,

New York. Bernie formed the Kardon Mfg. Co. but continued as a consultant to his late father's company, then called Premier Microwave Inc.

HARMAN KARDON

While with the David Bogen Co.. Bernie met Sidney Harman, also a Bogen employee. In 1951, when Harman left Bogen, he and Bernie formed a new company, Harman Kardon Inc. Sidney handled sales, merchandising, and advertising, while Bernard was Chief Engineer, Designer and Production Manager. They had an assembly plant in Plainview, New York. Harman Kardon became known for quality au-

dio electronics early in the hi-fi years of the 1950s and helped pioneer the individual component marketing concept. The company exists today, much expanded, as Harman International, a world

corporation making compact disc and speaker systems. Sidney continues today as head of the concern. Bernard left the firm in 1959 to become an independent consultant. When Bernard was in his late fifties, he returned

to school. He received a bachelors degree in engi-neering from City College of New York in 1973 and a master's degree in electrical engineering from Fairleigh Dickinson University in 1976. Bernard Kardon remained a registered Profes-

sional Engineer. With his father's spirit of adven-ture, he worked as a consultant, traveling about the U. S. on various projects until his death in 1993. Into the history of the electronics industry goes

the name "Kardon," a company begun in 1923 by the simple efforts of a father and his son.

PHILCO MODEL 42-KR3 — The chassis of this set is AC/DC and uses loktal type tubes, which are typical of Philcos of this era. At first glance, it would be easy to mistake this for a Bakelite set, but the cabinet is actually made of wood and painted ivory. Notice that the bottom of the base is curved slightly so that it could set on top of a refrigerator without rocking. Tops of refrigerators of 1942 vintage were slightly rounded.

HOME MADE CRYSTAL RADIO — This home-brew crystal set was made by Woody Wilson, WA6KVW. It uses a glass-enclosed crystal detector. (Paul Giganti — San Carlos, CA)

TRI-CITY MANUFACTURING COMPANY MODEL W-4 — This 1923, roughly built 1-tube regenerative set has unique features on the panel. The tap switch shaft is concentric, with the knob controlling the spiderweb regeneration control. Connected below the tuning knob is a vertical bar attached to a much smaller knob. When this small knob is pushed down and turned to the left or right, it acts as a fine tuning vernier control. (Walter V. Worth — Wollaston, MA)

U.S. RADIO & TELEVISION CORP. "SCREEN GRID" MODEL 27 — Schematically similar to the more popular Gloritone model, this 5-tube 1930 model has an inverted chassis. Oil-filled filter capacitors are enclosed in copper cans. (Bob Lackey — Carlsbad, CA)

RESTORATION TOPICS

Another Hum Proble m

BY CHESTER A. GEHMAN

tread Bob Gates "AC Hum" article in Septem-bers A.R.C. with considerable interest. I too have encountered core problems with transformers and chokes, and the "vibrating screwdriver" test he described is extremely useful and usually infalli-ble. On occasion, I have remedied the problem by firmly but gently tapping the laminations to reduce air gaps that are present. (I remove the tubes from their sockets prior to this.) While most problems we encounter in elec-

tronics are due to failure of one or more compo-nents, there are occasions when human failure is the cause. This is true for the hum problem I will describe. I am the proud owner of a 1935 RCA Model

C11-1 console which I have carefully restored. I've hand-tweaked the alignment to what I think is per-fection, and the overall response is excellent. Re-cently, I acquired an RCA 0-11-2 (or possibly a T-11-8) chassis which is almost identical to the C11. The latter has tuning bands A, B and C, while the newcomer has bands A, C and X (the 200 to 400 kHz long wave) in place of the police band. Since I am interested in long-wave DXing. I

decided on restoration, if possible. I was some-what dismayed to discover a previous "repair" job — electrolytics, a few capacitors and several resistors now dangling in disarray. Carefully sneaking up the line voltage via a Variac, I was glad not to see smoke, but I heard a not unex-pected loud hum. Noting the vintage and questionable manufac-

turer of the replaced filters, I quickly clipped them out and temporarily connected new tubular ca-pacitors exactly where the old ones had been. I did take the time to check out the negative return of the input capacitor to assure myself that it connected to the high voltage (HV) center tap, not to the chassis. (Quite often "repairers" as-sume that the negative terminal of electrolytics must always return to the chassis!!!) After some additional repairs and the replace-

ment of a defective tube, the broadcast band functioned. There was, however, an annoying hum, especially noticeable with the speaker on a sounding board — a hum that persisted with the volume control fully off. Removing the 6C5 AF driver tube reduced the hum only slightly, and bridging filters with double capacity didn't help. To isolate the problem, I clipped both 6F6 control grids together with no noticeable effect, thereby eliminating the input transformer as the culprit.

A PPROX tO VOLTS P-P

Figure 2. Oscilloscope waveform at 120 Hz sweep frequency.

Had I not owned the C-11, which is even quiet-er than a mouse, I probably would have thrown in the towel, but my dander was up and fighting. Why didn't this receiver behave like its half-broth-er? I strapped both 6F6 plates together, but the hum remained. Ouch! As I listened carefully to the speaker cone, I suddenly realized this was 60 Hz — not the 120 Hz one would expect from a full wave rectifier power supply. (Yes, Josephine, they do sound different.) This discovery opened new doors. Heater-cath-

ode short in one or more tubes? One half of HV winding open? One anode of rectifier inopera-ble? Once, many decades ago. I had encoun-tered a Type 80 rectifier socket that had one plate prong so corroded and distorted that only half-wave rectification occurred. Such was not the case here — the rectifier socket was OK. So were the Type 5Z3 tube and the transformer HV secondary. Would you believe? I now turned to my oscillo-

scope for help. Figure 1 shows what appeared at the rectifier end of the speaker field coil. Figure 2 shows the waveform that apeared when the sweep frequency was increased to 120 Hz. This shows about a 10-volt differential between suc-cessive half-cycles of the rectifier action.

14

Again, I suspected the HV winding, but the oscilloscope showed identical waveforms at both plates of the 5Z3. Some-how 60 Hz was getting into the filter system. I also looked di-rectly across the input filter ca-pacitor, expecting to see the same waveform. However, here both half cycles appeared equal. Not being a drinking man

(usually), I then moved to the kitchen for a cup of black coffee and sat down to think. That didn't help much, so I went back and looked. Figure 3 shows what I finally discovered — the former worker had chosen the closer 5Z3 filament terminal to tie in his replacement capacitor, and I, like a blind sheep, had fol-lowed right along. There were 5 volts root mean square (RMS), 60 Hz zipping right into the filter system. After I had corrected this wiring error, the 0-11 was just as quiet as the CX-11. How's that for a trouble??? I hope no one else

encounters this problem; perhaps my experience will be of some help.

More on Triangle Electric/Silver-Marshall

COMPILED BY RAY BINTLIFF FROM INFORMATION PROVIDED BY RAY SCHMIDT

An article about the Triangle Electric/Silver-Marshall radio, Model 47-A, appeared in the Oc-tober issue of ARC. The article sought addition-al information regarding the radio and Triangle Electric. [Editor]

Reader Ray Schmidt responded by furnishing a copy of the schematic diagram for a Howard Radio Company Model 47-A. That schematic is identical to the Triangle Electric schematic that appeared in the A.R.0 article, except for the company names. Because the schematics differ only in this re-

gard, it is reasonable to assume that the Model 47-A was manufactured by Howard Radio and sold under both the Howard Radio and Triangle Electric brand names. When this model was built, circa 1935, the Howard Radio Company was an active radio manufacturer located in Chicago at the McMurdo Silver plant that Silver had vacated in 1934. The connection between Silver-Marshall Man-

ufacturing Company and Triangle Electric is ob-

sc.ire. Since Bill Halligan had acquired the rights to the Silver-Marshall Manufacturing Company, he may have entered into an agreement with Howard Radio to merchandise the Model 47-A under the name of "Triangle Electric." By using the name "Silver-Marshall" as the manufacturer, Halligan may have been trying to conceal his connection with Howard Radio and prevent com-plaints from Howard Radio dealers. But, this is conjecture. While we have some additional clues to the heritage of the Triangle Electric Model 47-A, it remains something of a mystery.

PHULE DUO-TUBE LA MP Two Tubes For The Price Of One By Charles T. Muller, IC2UHF

In April of 1922, the Phule Lamp Works ran the opposite ad introducing its DUO-TUBE, a double filament tube. With the fragile filaments and high prices of the day, a mistake when changing batteries meant POOF! for your tubes and a crying towel for your face. As good as the DUO-TUBE may have been, it never

took off because the Phule Lamp Works was sued for patent infringement by two large tube companies claiming that Phule used the same grid and plate tructure as its own patented designs.

Dr. Radio answers those tough restoration

problems sent in by our readers

Q: Dear Dr. Radio, Is there an easy way to repair cracks in a Catalin

radio? I now have several of them with cracks and I'm not sure what to do? All-Cracked-Up in L.A.

A: Dear Cracked, Until recently there wasn't much you could do

about those cracks. Then, about 9 months ago. I brought together a team of experts to solve this problem. Our unique task force included the best in the business: Pierre LaFuchs (French chemist known for his re-search in cast resins and Catalin), William Baxter (munitions expert). Harry Stalks (inventor of micro-wave popcorn) and Willie -The Hot Man" Jenkins (renowned Cajun chef). Grouped together in a think tank I assembled in Terra Haute, Indiana, we came up with this procedure. The first thing you do is remove the chassis, knobs,

all trim pieces, dial glass and stickers. Thoroughly wash the cabinet with a mild detergent, using a soft toothbrush to remove the dirt and grime in the hard-to-reach spots. Then prepare a solution of I quart spring water, I quart vinegar, a 12 ounce box of baking soda and two bay leaves. Soak the cabinet in this solution for 72 hours: then rinse with spring water and let air dry. Now, here comes the uicky part: wrap the cabinet tightly with an ace bandage so that all cracks are pressed together (very important). Microwave the wrapped cabinet on a medium setting for 2 minutes, let sit for 5 minutes, and repeat 10 times (note: micro-wave settings may vary from oven to oven). After this sequence let sit for 2 hours; then finish with a 5-minute cycle on maximum power. Remove cabinet from oven, unwrap the ace bandage and. PRESTO, the cracks are gone! Caution: This procedure may cause cabinet de-formation. Some Catalin radio cabinet,: contain various

contaminants that may result in an explosion during the microwave portion of this procedure.

I recommend that you practice this on a friend's radio at his house before you try one yourself. Let me know how it works.

Q: Dear Dr. Radio, I don't want to complain, but the Phileo Model 89

that you recently restored for me has a terrible squeal on the upper end of the shortwave band. My friends tell me this is called "oscillating," and I should have you correct it. Ears Hurting in Indiana.

A: Dear Ears, I'm glad that you wrote to me so I can share this

situation with the rest of our readers. Although I re-store thousands of radios every year, I still remember the radio you are talking about. Your particular radio was one of a very few that was modified for use by the Greek underground during World War II. The upper shortwave band had been modified to receive secret radio transmissions from a handful of Allied troops on a remote island whose location is still unknown today. The ability to receive those secret radio transmissions required the radio to oscillate at the upper frequencies on the shortwave band. If I were to repair it, the historical value of your radio would be destroyed. So tune in and listen to the squealing as you enjoy your rare radio.

A tough restoration problem got you down? Don't get mad, ask Dr. Radio for his expert advice: Dr. Ra-dio, do A.C.R.R., 3426 Coldstream Ct., Lexington, KY 40517

CONTRIBUTED BY RICHARD ESTES

Over a hundred radio collectors from nine states participated in the Vintage Radio Auction at the Seville Auction Barn, Medina, Ohio, on Saturday February 12, 1994. The auction netted $32,000.

An Atwater Kent 9 breadboard with tags went for $1,200, and a Federal Model 61 in very good condition went for $1,000. Just under 400 lots were sold, according to auctioneer Richard Estes. The next Estes Vintage Radio Auction will be

RADIO RAMBLINGS...

In Praise of Dealers BY GERALD SCHNEIDER

I like dealers, although I am not a dealer myself. This does not mean I care for all the dealers I meet, or that every dealer is honorable. It denotes my appreciation of the services dealers bring to col-lecting; they supply radios, parts, and related col-lectibles. Most collectors I know who dislike deal-ers feel that way because of envy or a misunder-standing of business practices. Many radios I own or have owned came from

dealers or dealers disguised as collectors. They and they alone were willing to trade my paper money for their radios. Other collectors who had radios I wanted either refused to sell them to me, or, worse yet, were in competition with me for radios I collected. Thank goodness there are peo-ple in this world (dealers) for whom making money outweighs collecting concerns! Some collectors complain about the high prices

dealers are asking for radios, or how such dealers have made the hobby so costly. Nonsense! Deal-ers cannot charge any more for radios than buyers are willing to pay. While some collectors cannot afford expensive radios, most are just too cheap to pay going prices. Or, more accurately, the persons who do not buy do not value the radios offered enough to purchase them at the dealer's asking price. No collector selling radios who grumbles about today's cost of collecting has ever offered me bargain prices on radios he bought inexpen-sively years ago. What hypocrisy! Then there is the lament about overly aggres-

sive dealers at meets. You know, the ones who, among other things, flock around vehicles as they pull into the trading area, grab for and make offers on radios before they are unloaded. Well, that kind of behavior seems all too common at meets and is

not restricted to dealers. Those who label dealers as "mercenary" might expect dealers to act this way. But what excuse for such "piggish" conduct do ordinary collectors have? Once I drove to a distant meet as the guest of

another collector who planned to sell radios from his vehicle at the meet. During much of the drive he derided dealers for their "greed" and "pushiness." We arrived the night before the meet opened and were forced by circumstances to sleep miles away from the meeting site. His outrage against dealers not withstanding, he woke me at 3:30 A.M. the following "morning" so that we could hurry and get a good selling spot at the meet. Talk about collec-tors living in glass houses throwing bricks at the homes of dealers! In general, doing business with dealers is easier

than with collectors because, well, dealers are busi-ness people. Dealers are more likely than collec-tors to bargain to make a sale. And dealers are less likely than collectors to be condescending if one makes low bids on sale radios. Remember too that the line between dealer and

collector is a slim one. I act like a dealer when I am trading or selling radios, even though such radios are only duplicates in my collection or radios I no longer want because of changed collecting tastes. The same is true for you if and when you engage in selling and trading activity. The bottom line — a little humility goes a long

way for collectors who contrast themselves to deal-ers! Dealers deserve respect for the valuable role they play in collecting.

(Gerald Schneider, 3101 Blueford Rd., Kensing-ton, MD 20895-2726)

How To Civilize Meets BY GERALD SCHNEIDER

Some have complained about meets becoming "feeding frenzies" for lusting radio collectors that view radios almost as mere commodities. But none have suggested ways to "civilize" meets so that they accent collecting radios for the love and en-joyment, as well as preservation of radios. I recently suggested to others working with me

on planning a radio meet later this year that a kinder and gentler approach could be achieved by starting the meet at 8 A.M., just as the California Historical Radio Society is successfully doing. Just think: more time to sleep, to drive longer distances more safely (in daylight), to be more humane towards accompa-nying family members, and maybe to talk to other radio collectors at breakfast, instead of rushing out to the mart area at the crack of dawn.

The response of one fellow planner was that the idea was "insane!" He said, "Let's be realistic. If we adopt this suggestion, we will hurt the meet, get a black mark against our good name, and they may even throw a rope over a tree limb in the flea market looking for the guy who suggested this!" Is the 8 A.M. starting idea really insane (most

meets are over by midday anyway)? Or does the 8 A.M. starting time just depend on leaders of meets agreeing to start then? I would like to know what other A.R.C. readers think about this idea. Hope-fully, they will respond to ARC., or to me person-ally. Thanks in advance.

Vacuum Tube Repair Wafers

These tube repair wafers are solid-state devices for quick and easy repair of early vacuum tubes. The wafer is installed by simply sliding it over the tube pins and reinserting the tube into its socket. If the filament is intact, but there is little or no emission, the filament may be lit for best visual effect. However, the tube can be open filament.

No change in radio operating voltages is required. Any number of tubes may be repaired in a radio. If wafers are installed on all tubes, the B+ voltage may usually be reduced without sacrificing volume or sensitivity. Performance will vary between radio models.

$10.00/each ($7.50/ea. 3 or more)

than the advertiser will be edited out of ads. Ads with non-radio-related items will be returned or edited unless the non-radio-related items are for trade of radio-related items, or they are incidental to and appear at the end of an otherwise acceptable ad.
