David's Antique Radio Room
 

 

 

   
Notes:
 
Westinghouse model H-574T4. This is a little four tube AM only set which I just recently added to my collection. Four tube sets were an economical alternative to the "All-American Five" tube sets, but if you lived in a rural area with few radio stations, four tube sets didn't work too well without an external antenna. I'm not exactly sure, but I think the last digit in Westinghouse's model numbers stands for the number of tubes in the set. All of the model numbers of the five tube Westinghouse sets I have end in 5, and this four tube set has a model number which ends in 4.
