Nice view of the tuning glass, this component is in perfect state, looks new ! There is only a lamp to glow it. During the restoration process the only broken thing was the tuning cord damaged.

Very important, before reinsert the tubes in their socket it's indispensable to clean them in order to remove dust and rusty. Some difficults receiver problems are due just simply to this problem.


Front view of the receiver. This radio have only three external knobs: On-off, Band selector and tuning. Even this radio looks quite a little it have a great sensibility and selectivity, more than bigger receivers ones.
