Restoring a 39-7
#22

Actually, this one doesn't. It's pretty plain. I have a nearly identical model with the preset tuning buttons and the brass escutcheon though. You are right about the play quality and sensitivity though. A solid little radio. The guy who had it before me wrote 38-12 on the chassis, but it is a 39-6 as far as I can tell.

Edit: no, it isn't, it *is* a 38-12 chassis. Just double-checked the schematic. Someone put a dial from a 39-6 on it and stuck it in a 39-6 cabinet. >:-(

Aw crap! Just noticed I posted about the the speaker in my 39-7 thread. At least the 39-7 is a real one.
