Radio/Phonograph Combinations
A list of my Radio/Phono Combos and Changers
This page is preliminary and the links are not working yet. In time I will be adding content to the links. Thanks for reading!
One thing that has always interested me is the unique phonograph and record changers that were developed in the early days of radio. I originally had this page focus on those, but decided to include all of my Radio Phonograph combinations.
Yes! I DECIDED TO INCLUDE THEM ALL!!! The good, the bad and the ugly or undesirable.
They are listed by brand/model and include post-WWII models, which are identified with an asterisk (*).
The cutoff is Stereo, however I have decided to include one model, due to it being rather impressive.
Also, two of them are phonographs only, but decidedly important
The dates are month of introduction as publicized in trade magazines such as Talking Machine World, Radio Retailing or Radio Today.
If only a year is given, then it was either difficult to pinpoint a month or it is the known model year of the set, encoded into the model number.
