RCA 5Q55
#3

Here's a picture of the underside of the chassis. Not too bad. Rubber wiring, of course, but not TOO much of it. The top of the chassis is a little dusty, and a little rust here and there, must have seen some damp, probably an unheated garage or attic where moisture could condense, but mostly it looks really good. Seeing as this was where it all started, the same model radio family friends gave me when I was 9 years old, and that got me started playing with old radios, and listening to shortwave, this is going to be fun.
