I still wish I could post photos of this beauty. Just got a nice Saturday Evening Post full page ad of this model from July, 30. Does anyone know how many of this model were produced? How do you detach the phono pickup for overhaul? Any source of repro instruction sheets for these old ones? The TRF receiver is working great-comparable to a 5 tube superhet at least, I think. I went from a 4 foot to a 15 foot wire behind the couch for antenna. Wonder if it is adaptable to a loop of some sort.
