ANTIQUE RADIOS VINTAGE VALVE RADIO
THE UK’s LEADING VINTAGE RADIO REPAIR AND RESTORATION CENTRE


VINTAGE RADIO GALLERY
PART OF MY GROWING COLLECTION
and other vintage radios I've come across

Restoring a vintage valve radio to its former glory isn't simply a matter of getting the thing working and wiping the cabinet over with a damp cloth. The radio must be removed from the cabinet, faults located and repaired, components likely to fail must be changed, the alignment checked, the wiring checked... The list goes on and on. The wooden cabinet will need restoring which can mean stripping the old varnish, repairing, rubbing down, staining, waxing... Bakelite cabinets will need washing and polishing. A complete restoration can take many hours. But the end result is well worth the time and trouble.

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.
