Very nice. My 118H still has the original grillcloth in great shape. Now the veneer and stringers between the legs that's another story. The cabinet search continues.....

BTW, My first SW radio and the sensitivity and coverage is not bad at all. Dial scale resolution, another matter...
Keep us posted.
