Hi,
PLEASE, don't take it to the dump whatever you do.
I know you don't want to restore it, (which wouldn't take too much doing) but even if you can't sell it, let the others here know your location and they would give it a good home.

Even though collectors don't always go for a phonograph model, someone may still want that one.
This set uses the same chassis is the
40-508 40-508 40-515

Ron may know if this is the same chassis as the 40-180, I dind't have time to compare the two drawings, but the dial looked the same.

Give it a little time, and someone will hopefully save it.
