THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD

Do you know the difference between a fully restored vintage radio
and a fully restored vintage radio? I do, and so do many people who have come to me with their so-called restored radios they've bought - which don't even work.

This Bush DAC90A table-top radio has been fully restored. The cabinet and dial glass are in nice condition and, as you'd expect, the radio works extremely well. I test all my restored radios for twenty-four hours a day for at least a week to ensure that they are in perfect working order, so you'll have nothing to worry about when you purchase this fine example.

One inherent problem with some early radios was the very dim dial light bulbs, and the Bush DAC90A was no exception. To overcome this problem, I have developed a modification which lights the dial perfectly. This is achieved by fitting a small transformer and new bulbs which in no way de-value the radio. The encapsulated transformer creates virtually no heat and is physically small, fitting inside the radio without making any permanent modifications to the chassis or wiring. The bulbs give a constant brightness and light up the dial beautifully with a nice warm glow.

Fully And Professionally Restored
with one year guarantee

By fully restored, I mean completely stripped down, all faults repaired, all coupling and decoupling capacitors and any components likely to fail with age replaced - and new valves fitted where necessary. Restoration also includes complete RF and IF alignment, all switches and controls etc cleaned and, above all, the radio has been made safe and fitted with a new British Standard mains lead and plug. This radio has also been fitted with my bright dial light transformer. This modification is not permanent and may be removed at any time.

Professionally restored? I am a City & Guilds qualified radio and TV engineer with over forty years experience in repairing and restoring vintage radios. Restoring and repairing vintage valve radios is my full-time profession. I take pride in my work, so you are assured of a good job.

Please note...

The cost of these radios is rising almost by the day. Even a scrapper with a broken cabinet and poor dial glass, which is sold for spare parts only, is now demanding in excess of £40.00 plus postage. The radio pictured below sold for £100 plus postage at auction. It hadn't been serviced, let alone fully restored... and there was no guarantee! Take a look at the price in bottom picture!

READ THIS IMPORTANT WARNING NOTICE

ONLY BUY A RESTORED RADIO FROM A COMPETENT RADIO ENGINEER
ONLY HAVE YOUR RADIO REPAIRED BY A COMPETENT RADIO ENGINEER

Many early mains radios have a live chassis. That means that the metal work inside the radio may be LIVE (connected to the mains) and it can KILL YOU if you come into contact with it. Exposed screws or any other metal work on the outside of the cabinet or fascia of the radio must be checked for safety by a competent engineer.

DO NOT CONNECT EXTERNAL WIRING TO SOCKETS ON YOUR RADIO UNLESS THE RADIO HAS BEEN CHECKED AND CERTIFIED AS SAFE BY A QUALIFIED ENGINEER

If in any doubt, consult a qualified radio engineer.
