No, I haven't posted anything about it on here, yet. There was another US Apex lowboy from the same year as my Dad's big console that sat on display at a local restaurant for years. Was in perfect condition until the day some elderly gentlemad lost his balance and plowed head-first into the grill. Grill was toast and the guy ended up going to the hospital. So, you could say that the only antique radios I was regularly exposed to as a child were US Apex models!
On to another note about my Apex 46: It has pot metal issues in the tuner. When you get to about 800 on the dial and below, it scraps like crazy. Grrrr potmetal! GRRR! GRRRR!
