For its size, its a very good performing radio. With an RF stage and AVC, AM reception is comparable to the 118B you already have. The 118B has the edge in audio performance with its class AB triode output, compared to the single 42 pentode of the 19B.

If its in nice shape it is definitely worth having, and its comparatively compact size is a plus.
