The nice thing about this unit is that everything WORKS! I purchased it from a local non-profit antique store for $100 (down from $175). One of the salesman knew a little about radios so we chatted for a while. It was advertised as working and they had turned it on many times in the store. When I tried it in the store I was able to receive 2 stations very clearly with NO HUM! There was no antenna attached. When I got it home, I added a 10ft wire to the antenna connector and what a difference! Works great! I listened to it for a couple of hours yesterday. It needs a good cleaning and some cosmetic work on the cabinet but I am very happy with my find. When on display in the store, it was at the foot of a stairway with the doors closed and lots of stuff on top. I just happened to notice a tag which stated "works" and that prompted me to investigate a little further.
