This was found locally for $40.00. It's solid and all of the tubes and shields are there.

Great ind.
Mine was I think (another cabinet) over a 100 and no shields, plus as I found out yesterday all magnetics are dead.

It's actually a 66 MB, Mike's set is a 66 B, same chassis but a different cabinet. I've been keeping my eyes open for either a 60 MB or a 66 MB, neither is a high end radio but I like the European looking cabinet, it reminds me of a British set but without the stupid tube types.

I'll take it! Icon_mrgreen

I would like one of those like yours. Not a fan of the other cabinet style.
