Telefunken tabletop radio: is this OT here?

[mhardy6647]

Wednesday AM at the town dump was a good morning: besides a couple pieces of fairly pedestrian ss hi-fi equipment, I found a Telefunken tabletop multiband (AM/FM/SW) radio. Model is "Andante". I have always wanted one of those big, '50's/60's German table radios (Grundig, etc.)... if nothing else, the price was right for this one!

I'll try to Variac it over the holiday break. Quick perusal indicates that only the FM band pointer moves; guess there is a slipping or broken dial cord in there somwhere :-( Generally, the set looks pretty good, so I am guardedly optimistic.

Just thought I'd share...
