I got one!
#4

Most AKs you find around here have some rust on the inside. It's that wonderful, humid Ohio air. I doubt finding another complete chassis is going to happen as this one is a bit different from the AK breadboxes I have lying around. For one thing, this unit has a regular electro-dynamic speaker, not the early high-impedance units. It's an eight tube chassis that appears to use push-pull 71's as outputs. Also, I think the 'chassis' is actually part of the cabinet. It appears you can pull out the RF deck and transformer deck separately, but that's it. Actually, it looks like getting the parts out might be a real pill. The original AK instructions even mentions having to cut some wires! Eek!

No matter where you go, there you are.
