Finally I finished my tombstone.In this particular case I was only working on the electronics and their looks. Wanting to redo the cabinet I was questioned:"Are you out of your mind?"Well, you look and tell me.
All the same, it is the most amazing set I have owned so far.With only 25 straight wire, I have to keep the tuner dial at the low speed - so many stations are on the SW. The shadow meter window is very wide and more sensitive than the other meters I have come across. And, of course, the sound quality one would not expect from the table top. Definitely a keeper.
