The consignment of empty state electronic devices arrived yesterday. No chance to test them yet - I was fixing something else - but the Tung-Sol valves/tubes/firebottles do look to be of good quality manufacture. I will be interested to see what it takes to bias them to the same current as the old ones.
Most of all though, I've been enjoying FM radio, while the unit is set up with some nice speakers in my fix-it space. I can see why these receivers continue to have a following.
I don't hold with furniture that talks.
