My buddy Don found a 16B within a mile of his house and it is an amazing fine. This radio was owned by a friend and it is in great working condition with the shadow meter functioning and all bands loud and clear. He calls it his juke box since it is so powerful. Here are a few pictures to wet everyone's appetite. Oops photobucket is under maintenance so photos will come later. This thing is huge, I had never seen one before. Is the 116B cathedral the Same size or bigger? Photo's will follow as soon as I can upload them.

Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
