Sandy, it even smells new. All original Hallicrafters tubes.

I've never seen one this original and untouched. Everything works. The paint on the case is near flawless. The feet are perfect. I took the R-46B speaker off my SX-71, and this thing sounds amazing on FM.

It's definitely for the casual armchair user, though. 15 minutes with no bandspread and stupid string-around-the-shaft tuning, and I'm ready to throw it through the window.

It won't be replacing my HQ-180A, that's for sure.
