first you search for a repairman to fix this radio, then you ask for help
connecting a freq meter to it, and now you decide to unload it on ebay? i
say
"buyer beware"

I was looking for someone to repair the switches on the back and give the
radio an alignment, which is all mentioned in the auction.

I decided not to bother with it because to have the service done, I'd have
to pay for shipping to and from Florida, packing (I'd want to be sure it was
properly packed up in a good box with plenty of cushion), plus the actual
service, which would cost me a lot more than it would cost for the tech to
actually do any alignment that might be needed.

Someone with the proper test equipment and experience can run it through
alignment procedures and replace two switches for a lot less than someone
doing it for a living.

I say "Tim Nebo, read the whole thing before farting at the mouth."
