Made in New Zealand in 1945 by Radio Corporation of New Zealand, this is a monster of a radio with a number of unique features.
This has been a difficult restoration from the start, beginning with a burnt out transformer then an open circuit speaker field coil.
Part 3 is mainly concerned with bringing the speaker back to life. I originally intended to finish with the speaker and chassis in this part but there are more issues with this radio and in the 3 weeks since the last video I haven't had time to sort those out. It's been one thing after another with this one and I couldn't have got this far without a lot of help from the radio restoration community. I just hope it will be worth it in the end.
