March 16, 2013...Well, got this Bad Boy back from Terry today...Terry didn't have much good to say about it,other than it likely works as good as new now...But that wasn't all THAT great, from what I read between the lines from him... Well...I hooked it up to the Antenna I have around the perimeter of the ceiling in my Radio Room...And, DAH-YUM, it came ALIVE...Went from bein' pretty DEEF to OMIGAWD...Ok, its NOT my R-389, R-390As, or the EK-07...But for a consumer-grade 75 yr old radio w/5 tubes, it ain't HALF bad...But its been my experience that MOST of the old guys like this will give a VERY good accounting of themselves, if you give 'em a half-way decent antenna...
