The Fine Things are Always Hand Made

New guy with McMurdo Silver

Just wanted to take a minute to say hi. Even though I don't have a Scott, it was recommended that I join here since several members also have McMurdo Silvers and/or knowledge of these radios. I've been the caretaker of my great uncle's 15-17 for over 20 years now, he purchased it new in 1937. I've been working on recapping the radio and it is currently functioning again, but I do have a few questions. I'll start a new thread for those as things move forward. I will ask now though, does anyone have any documentation for this radio? I'd be happy with pretty much anything in a digital format (owners manual, better schematic than what I have, etc). Thanks in advance!

Andy - I am not the great keeper of all things M-S but I have a few files. I have attached a couple things you asked about and a period magazine article.

Some of the folks here have MS sets too, and may be able to help more than I can.
