This 1920s TRF radio manufactured by Signal is constructed on a breadboard Tuning a TRF receiver, like this 5 tube Neutrodyne set from 1924 with two stages of RF amplification, was a complicated process. The three tuned circuits, controlled by the 3 large knobs, had to be tuned in unison to the new station.
Today's radios are usually uneconomical to repair because mass production and technological improvements in numerous areas have made them so inexpensive to buy, while the cost of human labor and workshop overheads have increased greatly in comparison. Typical insides of an antique radio, showing the vacuum tubes.
RCA antique radios, and early color television receivers such as the RCA Merrill/CT-100, are among the more sought-after collectible radios and televisions, due to their popularity during the golden age of radio and the historic significance of the RCA name, as well as their styling, manufacturing quality and engineering innovations.

The RCA model R7 Superette superheterodyne table radio. This is a list of notable radios, which encompasses specific models and brands of radio transmitters, receivers and transceivers, both actively manufactured and defunct, including receivers, two-way radios, citizens band radios, shortwave radios, ham radios, scanners, weather radios and airband and marine VHF radios.
The Neutrodyne receiver, invented in 1922 by Louis Hazeltine, [133] [134] was a TRF receiver with a "neutralizing" circuit added to each radio amplification stage to cancel the feedback to prevent the oscillations which caused the annoying whistles in the TRF.
The receiver functions as a tuned radio frequency (TRF) receiver. The radio frequency (RF) signal from the tuned circuit ( bandpass filter ) is amplified, then passes through the high pass filter to the demodulator , which extracts the audio frequency (AF) ( modulation ) signal from the carrier wave .
