SKU:
US1-M-000003
Scarce and early Signal Corps type SCR 59 aircraft radio receiver manufactured by Western Electric.

These receivers were intended to be used onboard US Army Air Service planes during WWI but were quickly deemed obsolete due to their very short range.

The front Signal Corps plate and another plate located on top of the case are missing. The patent plate is still attached to the wooden case. The schematic diagram sheet is still glued inside the case.

This receiver appears to have been modified during the post-war years with the addition of a large knob on the front plate. We do not have enough knowledge on this field to assess the extent of the modifications applied to this receiver.
Dimensions :
Length: 11in - Width: 9 1/2in - Depth: 4 3/8in
Condition :
Average condition with several cracks on the front black Bakelite plate. Perfect for a restoration project or for parts!
Please feel free to contact us should you have any questions regarding this item.

Rare et précoce radio d'avion du Signal Corps de type SCR 59 fabriqué par Western Electric.

Ces radios étaient prévus pour être embarquées dans les avions de l'US Army Air Service pendant la 1ère GM mais furent très rapidement déclarées obsolète à cause de leur courte-portée.

La plaque frontale du Signal Corps et une autre plaque sur la partie supérieure du boitier sont manquantes. La plaque de brevet est toujours attachée au boitier en bois. La feuille de diagramme schématisé est encore collée à l'intérieur.

Cette radio semble avoir été modifiée pendant les années d'après-guerre par l'addition d'un large bouton moleté sur la plaque frontale. Nous ne disposons pas assez de connaissances sur ce sujet pour évaluer l'étendue des modifications appliquées à cette radio.
Dimensions :
Longueur: 28cm - Largeur: 24cm - Profondeur: 11cm
Condition :
Etat moyen avec de nombreux craquements sur la façade en bakélite noire. Parfait pour un projet de restauration, ou pour pièces!
