May have chance to pick this up. This is the only picture I have! It looks like the 645k in the gallery. If so, any info on this set? Is it worth getting?

Thanks

Nice, three band, 7-tube, AM/SW radio. Will be a great performer once properly restored. Go for it if you have the room for it! Icon_thumbup

Make sure it is a 645 and not a 623K (battery operated) or 624K (operates from 6-volt storage battery). While these would also be interesting radios, you have the issue of building a power supply or a battery-operated supply for these.
