Hi Paul,

She sounds pretty good. Gets the local stations strong and clear. This was missing the back and loop antenna, so I did my best to construct a wire loop that would fit against the new back I constructed. I'm sure originally, with the correct back and antenna, it was more responsive, but I'm satisfied with what it does receive. It was in really rough, filthy condition when I got it.
