FM tuner info?

[John Byrns]

I want to get an early FM tuner, to use with my Emerson console. I have a
little plastic Blonder Tongue unit from the 50s, but I am really more
interested in something like a Pilotuner 601, or something else with that
sort of dial, rather than the slide rule type dial. I'd also prefer a wood
cabinet, but condition is not extremely important, as I would like to
re-finish it to match the Emerson, unless it's in bad shape. Is the
Pilotuner 601 the only one of its type? Anyone got one, or something similar
they wouldn't mind parting with?

I would go for a GE XFM-1, although the dial is probably not what you want.

Oh...much nicer than a Pilot. Love those wood knobs.

They don't show up as often as Pilot on eBay, or I completely
missed them at that time.

For my part, I use a small car FM converter and a 12v wall wart.
No wiring to do to the radio. NOT vintage but I usually conceal them inside
the radio.

Thanks for the link,
