This question has probably been ask so many times it's worn out it's
welcome
but I have to ask.

What is the all time best AM rig that you can still get your hands on and
with a little bit of work bring it back to life?

I'm not talking kilowatts. Good dependable Am communications.

I always favored the E.F. Johnson Viking Valiant. It's got the right amount
of power to use without an amp, has very good audio, and has a lot of
enthusiastic supportters.

The Johnson Ranger is a close second, with it's lower power output being its
only weakness.

FWIW. YMMV.
