Welcome! This website is a virtual gallery of my radio collection, past and present. Each of my radios has a story. Many of them have articles with photos documenting the restoration process. While my job and college use up much of my time most of the year, I do manage to spend some of my free time at the bench restoring these relics.

August 11th,
2010 - This has been a hectic and busy summer! Quite a bit has been
accomplished, but unfortunately many of my radio projects have been
slow coming. I undertook four radio restorations for a friend of the
family this year. The first two, an Emerson
503 and a Electomatic AR-501, were
recently completed with the remaining two currently in the shop in
various states of completion.
My big project was the completion of a 12' X 24' building for wood/metal work and storage. Completion required internal wiring, service wiring (100' ran underground), fully insulating the walls/ceiling, finishing the walls with hardboard, floor coating, and building shelving/workbenches. Air conditioning was a must, along with a good ceiling fan, high output fluorescent lighting, and a COLD refrigerator! I did most of this on my own in the record setting June heat, but the efforts have proven to be well rewarding.
