Wow, that brings back memories. That is a receiver which came into
being right around when I did (1950's).

The tubes in it alone worth something (can be hard to get replacements
these days, just price them!)

I sat before one of those for untold hours in my younger days ... shame
SW is so empty these days ... :-( It was an EXCELLENT RECEIVER ...
