Wireless Improvement Company
One-of-a-kind antique radio used by the navy for tracking submarines this unit covered a frequency range of 33kHz to 1 MHz and included a built-in crystal detector.
The condition of this CN-113 is very good throughout, with normal signs of wear but no evidence of abuse or neglect. The wiring is straight and original, coils are clean, and still tightly wound around the forms. The cabinet finish is original, and the brass tag is original and still legible. Buzzer assembly and crystal detector are original. All of the knobs and switches are original and in excellent condition. The panel is likewise in very good condition, with no filled holes, no repairs, no cracks. Although some of the screws that hold the front panel to the box are missing, none of the screws holding the components together are missing.
All of the electrical connections appear to be secure, and the condenser plates are clean, with no corrosion or oxidation. All of the tap switch contacts appear to be connected to the coils, and no contacts are missing. All of the panel screws are original, and none of them are missing. All of the binding post nuts are original, and none of them are missing.
