I recently purchased a console with an Ampex Monitor 970 reel to reel. I took the console apart sure I would find chassis ID numbers with a manufacturer's label but alas no joy.
The clues I found are the tubes all labeled "The Fisher" the AM antenna is printed "Fisher Radio Corporation" I have reviewed all the images of Fisher consoles presented here and not one from the fifties to the mid sixties match.
I have attached photos of the console cabinet along with pics of the chassis and one of the amps (also no manf. numbers). If anyone can help me ID this console it would be most appreciated. I collect and restore old radios but this is my first post 1950's (the reel to reel got me) and I love returning them to original condition but that means having the schematic and associated docs to do it right. I found all the docs on the reel to reel and am currently bringing it back to like new condition but need to find the chassis numbers to get the AM-FM side running right. If its any clue the FM Multiplexer is a G.E. MA-2G Ser. Number L210968. This is the only thing with a number on it.
Thanks again for your help
