Emerson 659
#4

I'm still a ways out from doing my own restorations, so have no issue supporting a local business right at this time for work on these later radios. That said, the owner of that same place has already asked me if I would be interested in a signal generator and perhaps other service equipment if he has any extras. He's going to start having his repair guy going through the extra equipment he's gotten over the years so he can thin things out, but he wants the stuff to be working when he sells it. So, there's a start if I can indeed get some of that stuff.
Of course, I will also need work space. That will come once I start thinning my own herd this year.
I checked and yes, this Emerson has the little IF cans in it. The same type cans my late friend used to describe with not so nice words... Hopefully Emerson used better ones than Zenith.

No matter where you go, there you are.
