I have found an old radio?

Question

in the loft, I would love to get it working but it says inside it needs two batteries. It is called a vidor CN429 and it even has valves in it. Has anyone any idea how I can either get a battery for it or who to ask about it? Pleeeease

Answer 1

I might be able to pass you on to a mate who's into old radios. I'll have to see if he can get onto Yahoo Qs.

(later)

My friend's here right now! He says if you can send a photo of the back, he can tell you in a moment. Is it portable?

Answer 2

You might be able to use it for ESP ;)

Answer 5

take it to shop and let them see the size of bat it needs but doubt very much it has valves as they went out before batteries was made

Used to have one of those, the link gives detail and the battery type, I don`t think you will get the 90 volt one now, but you could try the link below
