Stromberg Carlson 1101-HI "Dynatomic" Ivory Painted Bakelite Radio (1946)
This is the ivory painted bakelite
version of the 1101-H 'Dynatomic"
series. It covers the standard
broadcast band and uses the tube
set 12SK7 (RF amp), 12SA7
(mixer/LO), 12SK7 (IF), 12SQ7
(2nd detector/AVC/1st AF),
35L6GT (beam power), 35Z5GT
(rectifier). The use of an RF stage
means that this radio is quite
sensitive. It uses a built-in loop
antenna.
I re-painted this using antique white
for a close match to the original. It
is currently missing the "Stromberg
Carlson" decal that should be
located between the two knobs. I
intend to add this as soon as I can
obtain one from Rocksea.
Curiously, some of the dynatomics
use decals while others have the
manufacturer's name shown on the
dial scale (follow links below photo).
I have restored this electrically and
it now plays nicely.
