Unfortunately , casi totality of sellers say: " I plugged it on the mains , the lamps light " ( generally the front screen small lights!!) , and " the radio snores " or " the radio whistles" , or " no sound can be heared " , and unfortunately too , sometimes , it' s too late ...
Generally too , they have not verified the fuse is on the right position ( 230 V ) and has not been replaced with a simple bit or copper wire ...

Not same in the states ???
