My newest aquisition. Cabinet solid but will need re finish. Chassis has been modified to allow radio to be powered from 120V house current vice 110VDC the radio was designed for. An 80 tube is now where the ballast tube used to be, and the output is 2 45 tubes vice the 71s the radio was originally designed for. The rest of the tube compliment is 1 17 tube and 3 14 tubes. Interesting to note that the filament voltage for the 17 and 14 tubes is 13.5V !
