Great collection Down Under! Didn't know about it while lived there

[@lomgshorts3]

I talked to many ZL stations when I was KA2HLW, I wonder if they remember me. I also had a D.O.D. call and worked many New Zealand government stations back then. Busy time in my life as I was on a tugboat and had many duties then. Nice video de W4FJF !!

What a dream What a collection you guys have. Beautiful pieces of art. I collect a few radios. More of Bakelite table top

[@grahamhawtree9284]

Thanks for your comments we too have some bakelite sets and i can tell you they dont take up any where near the room that these older wooden case sets do, but the bakelite sets just dont sound the same cheers Graham.

I sure hope you are insured up to the hilt ! And may in sometime in the future, think about leaving your radios to a museum, I hate to see them parceled off and sold bit by bit. what a wonderful collection. All that wood, oh my goodness!

I’ve done restorations, but nothing as beautiful as these models.

[@cdcVintage]

I love these! I just uploaded a short video explaining how I restored my 1933 Majestic with before and after pics.

[@SangiTariq]

Nice Collection 😉

[@TheShedMagazine]

Thanks 😁

[@KingJamesBibleBeliever-de9fy]

Great music!

[@bill-2018]

Beautiful wooden cased wireless sets. A nice sound from large speakers. I have 11. A bit surprised at the end. No valve transmitter and receiver as well as modern stuff? I have a much modified Wireless 19 Set, Racal RA17L which I'm just looking at as it's gone deaf, home built xtal one valve transmitter, TW TopBander. Not all old gear, I have an FT817ND and my home built i.c. and mosfet set at 4 Watts out. G4GHB.

[@TheShedMagazine]

Please do!

[@terencemcculloch3294]

Wonderful.

[@TheShedMagazine]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@o0Undead0o777]

The saddest part about wishing I had a old time radio, is if I did own one, even if it works perfectly... It wouldn't play the old time stuff nowadays...

[@kfl611]

You need a 'AM transmitter' or configure it for blu tooth, to play what you desire.

[@makyhsmakyhs6766]

Hi, Mr Wonderful collection good luck for you in the new year 2022. Please do you accept comments or questions,

[@jungleman4921]

I fully restored an old "LoveJoy" radio NZ made.

[@Stop-driver]

Hello from 4L1DW

[@Garibuenavista]

😍

[@anthonyhitchings1051]

May I Also ask, if one was on a remote NZ lighthouse station in 1930; with no land based power, was any kind of AM reciver used by station families to stay abreast of events on the mainland?

[@DaveyJonesLockerwithJazzy]

For my curiosity, why do some people say vacuum tube radios sound better than transistor units?

[@anthonyhitchings1051]

May I ask, when did reliable radios become available in NZ (assuming that there were AM stions to be heard).

[@izzzzzz6]

was that solar panel inverter interference over the radio at the end of the vid?

[@kamalalhayek9407]

يوجد عندي مجموعة كبيرة من الراديو واود ان ابيعها وقطع وصمامات قديمة كان والدي يعمل بها

[@adriancressy8363]
