What's that knob above the radio dial? Seems like somewhat of an odd placement.

Fortunately this one's plenty far enough away from me...

Looking at the back it seems to be a switch to select running either the Radio or TV through the Amplifier?

I wondered that, too. Mode switch for TV/radio/phono? The cage behind it is labeled Television and Radio.

Interesting that they included a separate FM radio. If it has an Inputuner like my RA-103, that could have enabled integral FM. Maybe they just plopped in an existing AM/FM radio chassis.

Is that an eye tube behind the radio chassis? Maybe someone pulled it loose and forgot where it went . . . .

Ah, I bet that's it. On my Scott 800-B combo, you can play TV audio either through the 5" TV speaker or the radio's audio section with 15" coax speaker. Guess which sounds better

That set is 60 miles north of me, and, I'm gonna try to save it. I like it, and, will find room for that baby!
Wish me good luck, guys.

Hope you win it, Bill! That's a beautiful cabinet and it looks like it has loads of potential. I'm surprised to see such a fine set this far south!

Hope I get it. I love it!

Go for it, Bill. I would love to have that set, except for having no room and the 3000+ mile issue.

I've been in touch with him. He wasn't going to take minimum bid. He wanted 200.00 for it. I offered a trade, I sent pictures.
He refused trade. Today, he canceled auction.
Now he tells me he will call me back in a week.He's moving.
I'll let you know what happens.
