Default Candle shortwave radio

I have a radio that my mother gave to my father as a gift in the late
1970's (or there abouts, she thinks). It's a Candle made by the Tokyo
Transistor Industry Co., LTD., model TK-2653.

I did an online search and found very little information on it and wonder
if anyone in this group could provide some additional info, such as
history, quality, worth, etc.

I have a Grundig S350 DL I use for general listening, and comparatively
speaking, the Candle doesn't do too bad in pulling in stations, although
the sound is not as good as the Grundig.

Any info is appreciated.
