Time to move on this one, either get it going or move it to a new home where it can get what love it needs. I should try for some better photos, these are a bit fuzzy. Has mostly metal tubes, I guess the "Radiotron" was being heavily marketed when this set came out. The far bottom right knob is a Range Switch, I am guessing like a local/dx switch. It is an impressive set size and weight wise. The speaker looks good though I did not pull it out, can't see the spot behind the audio trfr. I got it at I would say is a fair price, from a good radio guy, I had good luck with the Livingston 6 RF 9. So I hope to get in the hands of one better skilled than I this weekend. Anyone familiar with one of these sets?
