Found this today for.  After a quick dusting and a little Olde English, she doesn't look half bad.  IT plays too.  I know, I know.....I will get it restored. But when I went to pick it up, they had it playing. It sounded great, with lots of volume, and good tone. Picked up a ton of stations, unlike some of my other radios.

Its a 40-205xx.  Not sure of the proper suffix letters.  I think this might be the one that took the wireless remote. Not sure.


I'm kind of on a roll this week.
