Delco Radios

 Without a doubt every 32 volt DC radio that you will run across at a typical auction or flea market has been plugged into 110 volt AC current at one time or another with unquestionably disastrous results.  Be aware of this fact when you buy any old 32 volt DC radio.  It will need major repair!  Keep that fact in mind when you are considering a purchase price.  However old radio collecting is a field of its own and there is steady competition from the old radio collectors of the world keeping demand (and prices) for any old wooden radio high.
