Yup, I hear you on that. I have 5 consoles, and I plan on selling 2. The 38-1 I have is a keeper, as well as the 95 Lowboy and 41-605P, with the record changer intact. The 38-1 has a 12-tube chassis, and sounds great! The 38-3 I know only had a 9 tube chassis, so in that sense, I think that radio in the ad has an inferior chassis in an otherwise really nice cabinet.
Blessings,

I tried accessing the site through our library and got the same response. It's reported to our tech gurus. GaryGarySP — 11:50 AM

Those are details better left to the ones who know. Maybe you disconnected the wrong end of the wire.RodB — 06:22 PM
