"As we discussed in email, G-240 (not C) is the odd AW13 set. It has a 6-pin plug so it was never tied to the Type 150 amp. With a 240 serial number, it was VERY late, the Type 150 amp must have been much earlier - those two items were built at least…"
"Could that chassis C-240 have been a special order to be used with a 150 amplifier? Or, could it have started life as an earlier AW 12? Is there anyway to gauge a date based on any of the components on the inside of the chassis?…"
"G-240 Different prefix...and a high number (all Allwave 12 sets end at ?-250, no matter the prefix, a known break point. So it's a late set but has no bearing on my quandary with these H prefix sets.

So I found an 8-pin AW12 set in the boneyard - complete but only fair condition. I also have an 8-pin chassis in my Olympia cabinet. Here is the problem:

"I call any single dial 12 a Deluxe...leaving the Allwave 12 (not Deluxe for the 2-dial. But I suppose on consideration, we could align on Allwave 12 2-dial, Allwave 12 and Allwave 12 Deluxe to distinguish them, but I doubt anyone will get the…"

Battery Allwave, 6 volt
Posted on April 26, 2017 at 7:01pm 0 Comments 0 Likes
Does anyone have an idea of what speaker went with the Battery Allwave sets of the early 1930s?
These would be the 6 volt and 2 volt Allwave receivers.
Cheers,
John
