The cabinet has been polished with my 4 step process that brings out the original factory finish. The deep marbled Bakelite cabinet and gold grill give it an outstanding look. Check out the photos! FM uses the power cord and also has terminals on the back for an extra FM antenna. I have 3 local stations that come in loud and strong. FM reception is limited to about 20 miles without an external antenna, so I will include an FM dipole antenna with this radio. Thoroughly bench tested for a minimum of ten days, this unique radio is ready for you to use and enjoy. Since it is fully restored you will want to listen to it every day! I went through the chassis and replaced all of the electrolytic (filter) capacitors, the major cause of hum. I then replaced all of the wax/paper capacitors. The resistors were then checked and any more than 20% of their original value were replaced. A new dial light was also installed. All of the tubes were tested. Using my Precision 612 tube tester. The volume control, tone control switch, band switch and tuning capacitor were lubed so they now operate smoothly and quietly. I also replaced the power cord with a polarized cord for your safety. I then carefully cleaned and polished the chassis to a pleasing luster. He intermediate and radio frequency circuits were aligned to their peak utilizing my HP 8601A RF sweep generator and my Leader LS8050 oscilloscope. This will be a great addition to anyone’s collection. If you are in Canada, please wait for my invoice with the correct cost. I will pack it well so that it will arrive undamaged. Dimensions are: 12 x 7 x 8 inch. I TAKE GREAT PRIDE IN EVERY RADIO THAT I RESTORE.
