Bought another console! Pictures added!
#12

Thanks TA, I don't normally listen to any OTA AM where I live. Really only get a couple local stations. Most of my listening is off my SSTRANS and playing FM/ MP3/ or CDs. With this, I really don't need any kind of antenna. Most of my radios have a foot or so of antenna. Plenty of reception for our two stations and more than enough for the SSTRANS. Not certain where I left the local/distance switch on my 112 but it does fine. My main worry when I get to it is the speaker cone which seems very stiff. Does play but seems to lack bass. I has been reconed. Seems like my 112 speaker, which needed and was reconed was more flexible when putting a couple thumbs on the voice coil and pressing lightly. We will see when I get to the electronics.
Appreciate your thoughts, Jerry
