RCA 13K console radio, needs repair, was working very well until it just stopped one day, no smoke, no noise just stopped working while listening. No time to troubleshoot, should be brought up on variac, has been several years, was stored in climate controlled storage space. Radio has very good tone with a lot of bass and plenty of volume, 20 watts output into a 12" speaker with primitive bass reflex chamber. Has tuned RF stage, very selective and sensitive as were most RCA radios of the late 1930's
