Clarion 5 Tube Model 423 (RadioMuseum.org photo) - RF CafeFor many years I have been scanning and posting Radio Service Data Sheets like this one featuring the Clarion 5 Tube Model 423; 6 Tube 470, 471 and 472; and 10 Tube 480 radio. This appeared in a 1934 issue of Radio−Craft magazine. As with the articles, OCR (optical character recognition) is run on them to separate the textual content and make it searchable. 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. I will keep a running list of all data sheets to facilitate a search. Clarion 5 Tube Model 423 photo above was found on the RadioMuseum.org website.

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.

About RF Cafe

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling 2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps while tying up your telephone line, and a nice lady's voice announced "You've Got Mail" when a new message arrived...
