A 37-116 sound
#1

Today when I came from the trip and was struggling to get the cabinet in my garage, my neighbour Rob saw it and came to help. Since he did not know I was fixing radios, and expressed interest, I invited him in, demonstrated a couple, and at the end brought him in font of my own 37-116 and let him listen to it.
There was no music programming on the local station but then during commercial there was some music. He was totally blown away, he coul not believe this sound came out of a 1937 built radio, and then kept asking how come his son's stereo sounds like crap compared to it.

I was pleased with the effect. Icon_smile
