For many years I have been scanning and posting Radio Service Data Sheets like this one featuring the Admiral "Aeroscope" 161−5L, 162−5L, and 163−5L Midget Set models which appeared in a 1939 issue of Radio−Craft magazine. There are still many people who restore and service these vintage radios, and often it can be difficult or impossible to find schematics and/or tuning information. Some websites offer to sell this information, but often what is shown here is enough to get an old radio working again since most times both schematics and alignment steps are included. I keep a running list of all data sheets to facilitate a search (see below).

Radio Service Data Sheets

These schematics, tuning instructions, and other data are reproduced from my collection of vintage radio and electronics magazines. As back in the era, similar schematic and service info was available for purchase from sources such as SAMS Photofacts, but these printings were a no-cost bonus for readers. There are 227 Radio Service Data Sheets as of December 28, 2020.
