Well I had got 3 free radios a while back, one went to Terry, one is still in the box, this Emerson got done! The lighted dial pic is does not do justice, the cabinet came out OK, used Meguiars Wax and it came up good. I took the cabinet from a junker as the original had a big hole in top. 

It has been to the bench and it sounds quite nice, picks up my 250 Watt AM music station very well. So now I am wondering if I should give this to the guy who gave it to me, It was his Dad's.
