Peter that is an amazing story about your 37-116. Quite expensive indeed just for shipping and how fortunate for you to receive it unharmed! You must have really wanted that model and I don’t blame you. I have my chassis done but still needing to refinish my cabinet so I’ve never heard how well this radio sounds yet because I’ve only had it playing on my bench.
Mike, that was very generous of you in all the traveling you did to retrieve that radio and all the time to dismantle it and package it all up. You da man for sure!
