McCurdy was a Canadian – based manufacturer of broadcast audio equipment. They seem to have had US operations in Massachusetts and Illinois at various points as well. It’s easy to find their modular mic pre amps and various metering units on eBay, but I’ve never encountered one of their consoles. Anyone?

McCurdy still exists. I’ve got a bunch of their 60s and early 70s pre-amps. They’re fantastic. The full consoles were/are fairly common in radio stations up here in Canada.
We had that console in Studio 1 at TVO for about 10 years.
With some hope, that you will be kind, I'm leaving this with you. I'm looking for a McCurdy SS 4370 Console, but not a complete wreck. I realize any will need restoration. I'm a retired Anglican Priest who fondly remembers his Radio Career and would like to build my own studio with the McCurdy. Your help would be so appreciated!
