I expect that your 42-350 will have good audio. It was the beginning of FM broadcasting in the old 42-50 Mc. band. I have a 42-400, and the audio is very impressive. It was the first radio I' ever heard FM on, in about 1944, and I was ecstatic about it.

Unfortunately, about nothing is on that band, even today, so all you will be able to do is enjoy the AM broadcasts. You won't be disappointed.
