Telefunken Concertino

A testimonial from Joyce and Don Chriscoe to Tony Bartunek, The RadioDoctor, for the restoration of our 1959 Telefunken Concertino....March 2006

Our room was lit only by the glow from the fireplace. Champagne in hand, I pressed the SW1 button and my beautiful 1959 Telefunken Concertino came to life. It was the first time in forty years that I'd heard those deep rich sounds from our family heirloom. This magic moment was brought to us by Tony Bartunek, who spent months patiently restoring all that was broken and worn. Thank you hardly seem enough, but thank you it is from the far reaches  of my heart. Joyce & Don Chriscoe, and Rick Miller, my brother, who can't wait to hear it again

Pioneer SX-828 receiver

Hi Tony,
 
I received the  package last Thursday, spent the first half hour unpacking it (great job) then spent the next hour trying to hook everything back up to the receiver. What a joy to finally turn it on and listen to the sound. Its wonderful to have it back in operation again. Many thanks for your efforts. I hope I can count on your help again when the SX-828 needs servicing once more.
 
Thank you again,
 
Hans Grim , Oshawa, Ontario

Thank again Larry.

Stewart Warner R145 table radio

Hi Tony
 
Just a line to let you know that I completed the refinishing of the radio cabinet some weeks ago. I have put the chassis back into the set and all is working fine. The radio plays well and is a beautiful piece of furniture...The wood grain on the cabinet is knurled. That was a surprise...it looks terrific.
I wish you and your wife a wonderful New Year
 
John Cole, Thorold. Ontario


DeForest Crosley 7D 932  table radio

Tony, just received the radio today. Great work, it plays beautifully. I
will make arrangements to send my Stewart Warner. Thanks again for the great
service.

Thanks for the set you repaired for me. I'll bring another one, Zenith 1951 Model L 2281 to you for repair.

1940 Philco Mod. 40-190

Hi Tony-The radio's back together again & works great !!  I can't believe the quality of sound out of the
old thing. The cabinet must have been designed for that sound quality because it sounds totally
different with the chassis In than Out. The bass sounds like a modern receiver when tuned in to a
station. ( CKOC  1150 - Hamilton) Sent a couple of pictures & will keep in touch.

THANKS - Jim Halowen,  Orangeville, Ontario    Aug 23/2007

1941 Silvertone Mod. 1840

Hi Tony,
I picked up the Silvertone on Wednesday and it works very well. I can get many local stations without the use of an antenna, and am experimenting with an antenna for best reception on farther stations. I am quite pleased with the quality of work and the commitment to making things right. I will not hesitate to refer others to your service and will send you the Crosley soon. Thanks again.

1942 Stromberg Carlson Mod. 195

Just wanted to let you know that the radio you worked on for me arrived in good order and works very well. Listening to many short wave stations with just the antenna in the cabinet. Thanks for your great service. Will recommend you to others for sure.
