Guys- I think the NC-60/69 was the successor to the 1951-58 SW-54. It had 5 tubes as well, & mine ain't anything to write home about in the sensitivity dept. National DID make some excellent radios- I have an NC-183D, & an HRO 50T1, which are very good, but I still feel a Hammarlund SP-600 has 'em beat. Or go for it- get an R-390A, a good one, & you'll throw rocks at the rest. This l'il fella's worth maybe 30-50 bucks if its in excellent cosmetic shape,but you're probably gonna have to replace the caps in it at some time. I'd just do it anyway, & not have to worry.-Sandy G.
