I read a couple of things that said there were indeed a lot of them made and that they're still reasonably easy to find. I checked e bay and prices seem very reasonable and most are advertised as working well, so they must be pretty robust.
I removed the back for a peek inside. It's not too bad. The tubes all look pretty clean and everything looks to be in order. There is some dust collected in there, but it should be easy to clean up. It will be a fun project. But my history finishing wood isn't too good. I may have to practice on something else.
I really like the radio and my wife has agreed to let it live in the dining room. NPR is on AM here and she loves to listen to it all weekend. But the AM on our modern radios sounds horrible. I tuned it in on this little gem and it sounds sooooooooo much better!
