[Rovernet] Radio for P4

[peter prosser]

I don't know exactly where in Canada you  are but here in N.B. , all there is on the AM band is static since all stations have switched to FM. Maybe that's not the case and of course there is "skip" in the evenings from the U.S.

Subject: [Rovernet] Radio for P4
 

I have a radio from a 1959 P4 100 that I want to install in my 1956 P4 90. I have already discovered that the radio I have (World Radio Inc) is not authentic to the 1956 car, but that’s OK. And I do have to modify a bit to get it in under the clock. But my biggest issue is getting it to work. It turns on, and a bit of static sound, but no reception. It has a burned out 12ac5 tube (valve… I am Canadian). I purchased a new one but it turns out to be a UF41 equivalent tube, slightly larger, and with wrong pin configuration. Has anyone had experience with such a situation?
