I don't own this radio yet, but my friend talked about letting this radio go and wondered if I was interested in it if he did. This is one of the few radios he did not let go through the auction of his repair shop and has been sitting in his garage. It sat in his back room for a while too, but is still in good physical shape. Does not have the remote or the stereo decoder and appears to have never had either. Now, I am wondering what headaches we might get into with this radio being a really high ended German set? Would it be worth the effort to redo or should we both just send this thing on its way? I've been trying to find an RCA 8-RF-13 for a while, but this SABA set would easily take the place of that if he does decide to sell for a fair price. Yes, I know German radios can be headaches from previous experience, but also know they can be very nice when rebuilt right. Any advice would be nice.
No matter where you go, there you are.
