Wow, what a beautiful radio!

Must have been an absolute pain to tune...

Well this is the early model whout the chains. So tuning is no different than your average AK 20. I have a number of radios with the 3 dials tied togeather, like a Day Fan 5. It helps but you still have to mess with all 3 dials at some point.

Yah, Fuzzy is +/- 20lbs, depending on who he ate last. His sister is almost as big. He really does like old radios and rides over to the shop on the ATV almost every day.

He likes old radios that smell like mice most, but the Syncrophase had no signs of them.

LOL! I can't imagine a cat that can stand to be around an ATV. He must be very laid back.

He likes to stand up on the tank and catch wind - no, he does not let his tong hang out.
