This article is from the Old Time Radio FAQ, by Lou Genco webmaster@old-time.com with numerous contributions by others.
An excellent place for discussions about antique radios,
phonographs and accessories is the rec.antiques.radio+phono news
group, created by Bill Robie. A pointer to his FAQ may also be found
at http://www.old-time.com. Basically, r.a.r+p
- Is a *discussion* group, rather than a sales group (see r.a.m) -
Focuses on radios, phonos, and related materials made before the 60s
- Avoids "ham" radio gear (the Boat Anchors group covers that) - Has
a -very- comprehensive FAQ that new folks should read
The University of Maryland has a WWW site entitled "Broadcast
Pioneers' Library". This is an excellent resource for the serious /
professional researcher. It can be accessed through the old-time WWW
site, or directly via the URL: http://www.lib.umd.edu/UMCP/LAB/
Additional sites with pictures of old radios or other hardware
resources may also be found at http://www.old-time.com
