Yes, unless you want to spend the time and $ to restore what you have (probably $50 in parts plus you need soldering iron, solder and a multimeter) buying one thats already working would be best. Keep in mind pre-WW2 sets are all just AM or AM with shortwave, no FM.

Some suggestions:
1. There is a radio club close to you, http://www.archradioclub.com/
Go to their meeting and see if someone has a set they would sell you.
2. In Kansas City, about 4 hrs from you there is another club with an auction coming up on Oct 10. https://sites.google.com/site/midamerica...radioclub/
3. Put an ad for what you are looking for in the Wanted section of this Phorum.

4. You might find a working set on Craigslist.
5. As a last resort there are restored sets on ebay, but are usually a little pricey.

Cheers,
Bob
