Thanks Ed!
The radio has been put together with the battery and works fine.
The handle behaves well. Also, this radio is much lighter than any full fledged TO, plus the battery has 9x9V batteries plus 4xD vs 60xAA plus 6xD plus a Z1 battery, so the handle has it easy. Though I feel it holds well and wouldn't have much problem holding the real thing either.
I might try to clean the exterior, just have to find out what works best.
Off it goes to the shelves.
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.
