My favorites
A GE E81 and Atwater Kent 60. I was given the GE and only paid $40 for the near perfect Atwater Kent.
However, the Atwater Kent needed some serious component kung fu. The person who sold it to me use deox-it on the volume control thereby destroying the control. They have a wire wound unit and ganged on it is a graphite cardboard connected to the RF front end. I had to cut a new cardboard fitting and painted it with paint overloaded with graphite pencil shavings, works perfect!
