Chuck,
So from what you said there should be no toggle switch on a C-4. But there is a toggle switch on the R-6 and R-7, correct. That is how you turn the radio on with the 1930 models.

Correct, the power switch on the R6/R7 is a toggle switch.marcapra wrote:Chuck,

The R4/R5/C4 power switch is a rotary type.

Re: Restoration of an Edison C-4 Radio Phonograph
On my 1930 R-6 Edison radio, I'm missing the power cord. That's easy to replace except for the small female plug that goes in a small hole in the back of the power supply. Does anyone have one of those small female plugs. The plug would be just less than 1 inch in diameter. Hardware stores don't sell those anymore.
