I had an RE-45 years back and I foolishly sold it when I got the Majestic 181 radio-phono. The RE-45 was the best TRF radio I ever owned and picked up channels quite well. I know where there are two R-32's and even some parts sitting right now, but the owner would probably want a good bit just for the tubes in them and my late friend was the only one I knew who could get them to work. Also, we had issues with bad speakers in these, mostly issues with the solid disk spider getting warped.
