Electronics--Magnavox solid state radio research

Posted by alexak1907 (My Page) on

Hello!
I'm doing some research for my son. He was given a Magnavox solid state radio, probably from the 1960's. It sits on a table or shelf, but it is about 3 - 3 and one-half feet across and about 6 inches high and about 6 inches deep. The model # is 1FM031 and the serial # is 1531864. We would really appreciate any information anyone here might have about this radio.

Thank you very much!

Hi!
Thanks for your note. I also saw the picture on eBay. I haven't had a chance to listen to the radio yet, but it appears to be in very good condition for a radio built in the '60s.

I have found a solid state lear jet stereo 8 track portible model # P-560 made in detroit mich. serial#6636646. I dont know anything about it like the year. the stereo works great but the 8 track doesnt. the speakers pull apart for stereo effect. Runs on ac & dc. batterys have never been put in it. can any one tell me anything about this? year, is it worth anything? Ive looked around other sites havent found anything like it yet. please contact me with any info at phillipstoby96@yahoo.com thanks.
