  • Notes

  • The Sears Silvertone 57F 02471 = 2471 or 2571 or 2671 are the same only that 2571 was with additional Wincharger 57FM5425 and 2671 with additional Gas-O-Power 57FM5401. It is generally 2471 and offers three tuning bands: 540 to 1700 kHz broadcast, 1.8 to 5.5 MHz plus 6 to 18 MHz. Both, model 2471 and model 57FM2071 (or 2171 or 2271) share the same chassis with a magic eye, but one is a console the other a table top. They offer push-button tuning for 6 easy set up stations, AVC, variable tone control. For saving battery power they use a "Flash-O-Lite" dial which lights up only when tuning. Richly grained sliced walnut veneers, hand rubbed.
    Order number 57 F 02471 is the radio only for $ 31.95. As 57FM2571 it comes with Wincharger for $ 49.45 and as 57FM2671 with Gas-O-Power for $ 59.90. See details and summaries about Sears catalogs etc.
