Hey, this thing doesn't perform all that badly!  It picks up most of the stations that my Scott 16A does.  Have to adjust the volume for each station, but they are all there.  Using the same long wire antenna (200 feet long) with a tiny bit of isolation (1K ohm) for each radio.  Also have the Scott 16 hooked up to the same antenna.  Fairly impressive for a 4 tube radio.
