  • The Crosley 146-1 "Congressman" is an AC operated 9 tube BC band receiver.  Has 2 speakers with RF gain stage, two stage IF amplifier, active AVC circuit with sensitivity control and push pull audio output stage. BC band tuning range is 550 to 1750kHz. Crosley advertised that the Police Band could be received due to this extended BC Band range.

    Please note that some illustrations of this model show 3 knobs on the front panel, but it is possible that actual radio models have 4 knobs, which is supported by the Crosley parts list. The knobs are as follows: volume, tuning, selectivity and tone/power switch.

    From the 1932-33 Crosley News Brochure:  The beautiful effect on the front panel is accomplished by stump walnut overlays on a background of walnut veneer.  The molded edged top is of walnut veneer and is hand rubbed.  Delightfully designed speaker grilles are located at both ends.  The entire cabinet is raised from the surface by four beautifully molded corner knobs.

    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. The 146 and 146-1 chassis are similar except that the 146 chassis drives a single speaker while the 146-1 chassis drives two speakers. Here are the models that used the 146 and 146-1 chassis versions:

    Model Model Type Chassis Speakers
    146  "Senator" Console 146 Qty(1)
    146  "Mayor" Table Top 146 Qty(1)
    146-1  "Congressman" Table Top 146-1 Qty(2)

    Quote from 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 the police band also.

    There are 3 models associated with the 146 and 146-1 chassis that are not identified in the Crosley documentation, identified in this LINK.
