• Notes
• This John Meck model 5C5-DW9 is shown in "Radio & Television Retailing" issue March 1946. It has a built in loop antenna. In April it is shown as Trail Blazer 505-DW9 with exactly the same picture and there is added the same model in an other cabinet with built in record player, called Combo. Since in March there is quite a series with 5C5 we are pretty sure that 505 is a printing error. We put the 505 in brackets to the name so it can be found also this way.
