Phil,
I'll take a look through my service info for Air-Chief radios and get back to you. There will be a model and serial number stamped onto the radio's case somewhere, and failing that, a small sheet detailing transistor or valve part numbers glued onto the inside of the top cover.
I'm guessing it's a hybrid, with twelve-volt valves and a transistor audio amplifier.

The radio looks like a Vauxhall / Chevrolet radio  The adaptor probably suits one of the other. Ken |

Nothing in my Airchief files. Possibly the model number is stamped under one of the brackets. The number is usually quite small in height around 1/8". I have also seen the model number stamped on the base of the radio.

Phil,
It's an Air-Chief JQY or CQY. Your photos just show the tuner section. You should also have the audio amplifier module, which is an open sheet metal chassis with a transformer on it. Astor designed them as a "universal" radio, they also came out with a six-volt model. The fascia is for FE-FC, and because the radio's wearing Air-Chief badges, I reckon it was sold under the NASCO brand.
Did it come with a speaker? The Astor service sheet shows the radio with A-S-T-O-R on the pushbuttons, and a long, narrow Bakelite enclosure for the speaker.
I have the servicing information, and can even repair it if needed.
Rob

Rob.
all I have is what is in the photos , I have contacted the person I got it off ( he is cleaning out there fathers shed ) and he's away at the moment , he is going to look for the rest for me when he gets back.
if I don't receive the amplifier/power/speaker assembly we will have to make one up.
cheers Phil.
