In my last video I asked viewers which radio they would like me to work on next. This Columbus model 90 was by far the most requested.
Made in 1945 by the Radio Corporation of New Zealand this is a monster of a radio and unique in a number of ways.
So here it is.
I thought it would be a pretty straightforward restoration but the radio had other ideas.
Fortunately the amazing radio restoration community has come to the rescue once again.
