New to tube radio...need advice.

[tlavergne]

As a 53 year old I have fond memories of old radios of my folks and my grandparents. I don't know much about old radios other than I love them. I am trying to find a good, solid, reasonably priced, tube, entry model to get my feet wet. Does anyone have any opinions on what I should start with? FM is a must, as is a radio that can pull in an NPR station that is 50 miles away. Are all of these requirements obtainable on an old radio? Many thanks.
