Forum rules


The following requirements must be followed when advertising personal antique radio / TV / audio / phono items (such as discussed in the forums here) for sale in the classifieds forum::

  • Titles must START with : FS (for sale) or WTB (want to buy) or Trade or Free at the beginning of the title..
  • FS posts must have an "asking" price and offers may be sent by PM. Are you parting something out? ... price each major part (not things like screws and nuts)
  • There must be a location somewhere in the ad or the members profile (City & State or Zip Code are the minimum requirement).
  • Ads are limited to two per day, and may not be bumped sooner than 7 days after the last post to the thread.
  • No outside sales links are allowed other than to pictures of actual items being sold. No links allowed to eBay, Craigslist etc.
  • This is NOT a discussion forum. If you're not buying or supplying or suggesting a relevant solution, don't post - send a Private Message. Comments on pricing will be deleted.
  • First to post to an item for sale stating "I WILL TAKE IT" it is first in line. Subsequent claims will be followed in the order they are posted. Claims to "Take it" can be conditional on unknowns such as shipping costs.
  • Any "PM sent" posts without posting a reason for the PM will be deleted as they are meaningless to anyone else reading the thread.
  • Once a deal is made, edit the title to say so and the thread will be locked

If your thread or post disappears - read the rules again - no warnings or explanations will be given when threads or posts are deleted.

I am looking for one (or more, if the price is right) tube shield(s) for an ST-type tube. Does not have to be any particular brand, though a "Silvertone" marked one would be preferred, if such things were made. Mainly looking for cheap + functional.

Could you give us an idea of the style of shield you are looking for?I believe I might have some shields from a silvertone ,but they aren't all the same.A photo would help a lot.

There are several sizes and styles of the ST shields. Do you need the grounding connectors that go from pin 1 to the shield? Do the shields slide into a base that is part of the socket? Do you need the type that has a top cap?

It would be for a 75 tube. I believe that shield consists of a base (already on my chassis), two halves, and a cap piece, according to the parts list for my Model 1970 console.

"Two halves" sounds like a form-fitting Goat shield.

I believe this is what he is looking for.It came from a Silvertone radio,although I cut the "bump" off of the top cap so the end of the eye tube,which is inside,could be seen.

A 6K7 fits inside perfectly which is about the same size as a 75.If this is what you are looking for Rich,send me a PM as I have more.

I have a good stock of the ST metal shields, often called "GOAT" shields as that maker was most famous. They can come with different caps, sometimes with a bottom ring too.
