Picked up a Telefunken console today. Not my usual thing but it's a tube model and a quick ebay search showed it has some value and the price was right. It was labeled as not working. Turns out the power plug was pulled out from the back of the receiver section when it was tested. It worked fine for me after fixing that. The tuner dial does not work on the AM and SW bands. Looks like something has it jammed up as the dial string starts to move when the tuning knob is wiggled. FM works and sounds great. Might be a speaker in the bottom section out as well. A few cosmetic issues with the veneer and a nice sanding and refinish and it should be a bit above just presentable. Missing one of the small sliding doors. Would love to find one of those. All in all a nice interesting piece.
