Something rotten in Denmark... The 2000 has an all-electronic tuner with no contacts or moving parts. I wonder if it isn't a G-2000, or what they mean by "tuner needs cleaning"... However, that electronic tuner was the weak spot on that chassis. It had long, plastic module sockets similar to the Magnavox "Bird Cage", which cracked all the time and caused bad contact.

I would grab any G-2000 that comes up if I had the room, and if it were on the correct coast... After all, there were only 2000 made, and they were quite a milestone for RCA.
