I do not remember in which thread the subject of updating the original Airchief Radios was discussed. I have just fitted one such Radio which was rebuilt by NOSTALGIC WIRELESS located @ 63 Silverdale Rd, EAGLEMONT VIC. [0394992498]. The update involved removal of the "piggyback" valve section,conversion to AM/FM & Ipod connectivity. The sound is excellent, with none of the "old-static" that was a feature of the original radios. Really enjoying just switching on & the thing actually works!
old-blu.
