The only issue I have had with postwar brand Z radios are the IFs. Of course, that seemed to be an issue with alot of radios, especially the 50's ones I have found. I hear you about the MBAs and such running companies nowadays. It's all short term gains and run away inflation as a result. Ah, for the days when stuff was made and companies made for the long term. No way we can rebuild today's crap like we can these old radios we love.
No matter where you go, there you are.
