New to tube radio...need advice.

[tlavergne]

I bought a Zenith H845 AM/FM off eBay last week. It just came and I love this thing. It was built roughly the same year as my house (1959). I unplugged the little Sony that has been on our screened in porch and plugged in the Zenith. The reception is amazing and the power is equally amazing. The case is a work of art in itself...plastic front and walnut case with great patina. It has the original Zenith tubes and the finish on the volume knob is worn from thousands of on/off cycles. I think this radio has a soul...I really do. I know where I will spend the rest of my evenings this summer. Thanks all for your help and advice. As you can tell, I am thrilled!!
