The Japanese radio was a kit I bought in Akihabara in 1991. The directions are in Kanji, and it was a fun mental exercise to put together. Akihabara is a neighborhood in Tokyo with small shops that sell caps, resistors, transformers, tools, tubes, kits, and computers. I wish I had a place like it that I could visit for parts, though the closest example in this country was probably the old Radio Row in NYC. As the radio is only a black steel chassis with an aluminum faceplate, a gold ww resistor wouldn't hurt it even if it here mounted on the back.
