Hi Marlin, thank you, that is most kind of you to offer. I will pay for shipping of course, that transformer has to weigh 25 lbs!

I have a 16" floor model that has a radio, the knob layout looks the same as yours. The radio chassis is removable and mounts between the controls, otherwise it is the same 630 style chassis as all the rest.

The 16" version has a few extra tubes like two 1B3's in a voltage doubler circuit to make enough HV for the big tube, and two 5U4's to handle the extra load.

It also has a horribly complex wafer switch for AM/FM/Phono/TV... it will actually turn off the heaters for the tubes not needed for the radio.
