I found this Howard radio on the sidwalk for the trash man.  It is in rough condition, but does power up, and produced a faint noise thriough an added pm speaker.  This will be another major project.  The primary product for Howard Radio Company, 1731-35 Belmont Avenue, Chicago, Ill. were broadcasting receivers. Howard was also quite well known for it's models for short wave listener, radio amateurs and military.  During a W.W.II under a 1942 military contract, Howard manufactured the BC-779 version of the Super Pro SP-200 series for Hammarlund.
