Wax nostalgic about and learn from the history of early electronics. See articles from Radio-Craft, published 1929 - 1953. All copyrights are hereby acknowledged.

For the last few years I have been scanning and posting Radio Service Data Sheets like this one featuring the Belmont 4-Tube Model 408 (Series A) Battery "Farm" Superhet radio in graphical format, rather than run OCR on them to separate the textual content. It appeared in the October 1938 issue of Radio-Craft magazine. There are still many people who restore and service these vintage radios, and often it can be difficult or impossible to find schematics and/or tuning information. No example of this radio could be found on the WWW. I keep a running list of all data sheets at the bottom of the page to facilitate a search.

Belmont Radio was a manufacturing company that produced a range of radio equipment, including radios, amplifiers, and speakers. The company was known for its innovative designs and high-quality products, and was a leader in the radio industry during its time.

Radio Service Data Sheets

These schematics, tuning instructions, and other data are reproduced from my collection of vintage radio and electronics magazines. As back in the era, similar schematic and service info was available for purchase from sources such as SAMS Photofacts, but these printings were a no-cost bonus for readers. There are 227 Radio Service Data Sheets as of December 28, 2020.
