Ron, you're right two radios would be better than one!

Also, I did see your other post. Your 18B looks really nice. I hope I can get mine looking like that eventually.

I became interested in mine about 6 months ago. I saw it in a goodwill shop and went home telling my wife about it. The next time I went back, it was gone. Turns out she went in and bought it for me for Christmas. I have a few other tube radios that my father bought for me, but this will be my first attempt at a restoration.

By the way, do you know the proper pattern for the grill cloth in the 18b? I know I will need to replace that.
