Admiral Model 7C64 (RadioMuseum.org) - RF CafeThis "drive-by" schematic and parts list for the Admiral Model 7C64 vacuum tube console radio and phonograph appeared in the February 1948 issue of Radio News magazine. I refer to it as "drive-by" because there was no description or maintenance verbiage provided. You might not expect from the relatively simple circuit that the entire Model 7C64 was mounted in a multi-sectioned wooden cabinet that included a phonograph. The thumbnail at the left is from the RadioMuseum.org website - a great source for research on vintage vacuum tube radios. Admiral Radio is a brand of electronic products that was founded in Chicago in 1924. The company started out as a manufacturer of phonographs and radios. In 1971, Admiral Radio was acquired by Panasonic.

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.
