RE: [Chrysler300] 1960 F radio -1964 update





The 7-button Search-Tune AM radio from my ‘643 300K is out so I’m posting its markings:

 

Deeply embossed/raised letters stamped into the top of the radio case: 

MoPar

MODEL

 

Neatly and legibly-stamped into the case under the letters O & D of MODEL:

415

 

Stamped into the case to the right of MoPar:

AAPJ

 

A circuit diagram of this radio (and radio 414-Imperial) is found on Page 1-19 of the 1964 Service Manual.

 

It has tubes and transistors.  The base, 348, 5-button AM radio, is fully transistorized as is the 351/357 AM-FM radio.

 

Transition to transistors?

 

Happy New Year to those serving and served at this site.

Curiously, my F's radio does not have a Model # stamped on it. The word "Model" is on it, but no number.

My 1960 manual calls out the 5 button Chrysler Golden Touch radio as model 303.  I found schematics for my 61 signal seeking radio on line from Sam's and other places.  Mopar models 404 and 407 are covered in Sam's set 545 folder 10.  404 is Imperial, 407 is Chrysler.

Mopar model 922 is a 2-transistor signal seeking radio (mfg's model R85BC-S) that can be found in 57/58 Chryslers.  I believe the single transistor model is the one that also has the input on the rear for the HiWay HiFi. (maybe model 921)   I have a winter project going to use the 2 transistor output amplifier of 1958 with the chassis of 1957 to have the HiWay HiFi and more amplifier power.

I second the PhotoFacts, I even recall seeing one of the packets once.
Just can't recall if I actually bought one while they were still
headquartered here.
