Welcome!
Not a bad radio. Be careful, it is Ac/DC set without transformer, so some extra being careful while working on the powered unit is needed, preferably with isolation transformer.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.

If the noise is still there, the OPT might just be OK. Or so we hope.morzh — 12:01 PM
