AI4FR Virtual Shack Tour 

Eveready Model 3

 

Production year 1928

The Eveready Model 3 receiver uses 4 tuned AM circuits to receive the broadcast(medium wave) band. This receiver requires a 105 to a 125 volts A/C power source using .5 amps at 25 cycles(Hz). An external speaker or headphones is required.

All of the photographs on this page show the radio in the condition it was received. I will post pictures of the restoration process and the completed radio once work begins on this receiver.

  

  

The photograph on the left is looking down with the hinged top cover in the open position. The picture on the right was taken from a different angle.

The rectangle thing at the top center of the right photograph is the antenna that was found inside of this receiver. This antenna is called a "SUPER-SENSITIVE ANTENNA  An All-A-Round Aerial".. At this writing I am not clear if it is original to this receiver. The antenna container is very fragile and dry so any handling of it has been done with extreme caution. While I am not certain as to what is inside this paper/cardboard antenna container, I do imagine that it is nothing more then a coil of wire.  

The photograph on the left is a picture of the "SUPER-SENSITIVE ANTENNA An All-A-Round Aerial". For more pictures of this antenna please click HERE. The photograph on the right is an old speaker that will go great with this receiver once it has been cleaned up a bit.
