Little Granco FM radio
 
I got this a while ago, if you see one of these get it, they are great little radios.

Its very small about 5 by 7, two knobs and a 88-108 scale out front.

Its all tube and really pumps out the volume with very little distortion.

I used neg feed back off the secondary of the audio out.

Its inductor tuned and has very little drift.

watch out there is a tuner that looks exactly the same.

I have one of these radios, it's a nice little hot chassis table radio.

i have one of those too, along with the "stereo companion" unit.

these were sold as mono tabletop radios but there was a optional matching stereo multiplex / amplifier combo that matched the radio. both units connected using a standard stereo patch cord.

http://www.wa2ise.com/radios/granc620.jpg Is it this one? This one is a hot chassis, which would be a bit of a shock hazard (though one could do that 0.1uF "semi-isolation shock current limiter" cap trick.
