Indeed! Though I must say, my 41-295 is an excellent performer with its built in loop antenna. The loop eliminates a lot of electrical noise in the my house. Sounds pretty good too. Yet, I was very impressed with my 112X when i completed its restoration. I'm still impressed! When I got into this hobby, I had no idea that these early radios could sound so good. Even my 96 TRF sounds good, if not very selective.
