Default Bromo Tx and Rx


Hi,
Afriend of mine was cleaning out a storage locker and found this radio gear and sent it to me, knowing I'd get a kick out of it.
I'm guessing it's late 50's vintage, has a vacuum tube in both the Tx and Rx, on 27.225.
The Tx originally sold for $14.95 and the Rx was $6.95.
There's instructions for the Tx, it uses two 30 volt and one 1.5 volt batteries. I was able to find the 30 v batteries and thought it would be fun to see if I can get it working.
Unfortunately the Rx hasn't any instructions so there's no way to see if it works.
It was sold by Modelcraft in NYC, looks like the radio that Nat Polk was selling, but I think his was Aerotrol, not sure though.I tried to find out more about it but can't find any info.
If anyone has any info please let me know.
Thank,
Jon

You could try Tom at vintagercfiles-home he doesn't have the equipment you have listed but he might know something about it. I must admit that Bromo RC gear is a new one to me.
