  • Notes

  • The Crosley 141 "Big Fella" is an AC operated 5 tube BC band receiver. The BC band frequency range is 550 to 1750kHz.

    In many cases Crosley used the chassis number as the model number, and added a model name to some models to help distinguish versions that used common chassis.  Here are the models that used the 141 chassis versions:
