  • Remarques
  • Dave McClellan: "The Crosley 146 from about 1932 is a 9-tube superhet with a tuned RF amplifier and two IF amplifier stages. It receives only the broadcast band - the figures are 55 - 150 on the scale. The chassis is very complex and features a sophisticated AVC system with sensitivity control, push-pull class B output stage, a tuning meter, choke input filter power supply with mercury vapor rectifier, and both 2.5 and 6.3 volt filament tubes!" We can add that the broadcast band is extended (compared to chassis 124) and received also police.

    We find here the chassis 146 in a 4-leg-stretcher-cabinet from the season before (body without legs is 27.5 inches high) - from the 8 tube "Announcer" 124. We did not know if this was originally delivered this way by Crosley or if later the chassis was changed for a better one. But in the meantime we got an answer from the present owner which indicates that this has been a Crosley Announcer 124 first: "I know my grandfather got a paper delivery route just to pay for this radio, so it had to have been in the early 1930's that he bought it." This will not be the only such change and therefore it is important to bring the model - with those remarks! We build not a catalog but a reference work. And we have to show the year of market introduction (if we know exactly) instead of the sometimes later "model year".
