I'm guessing that since this has Modern FM on it besides AM that must mean this was a higher end unit since most radios from 1948 were either AM only or AM and Shortwave only and no FM.Either way besides the cord being gone on it the unit is in fairly good shape yet surprisingly enough, and is complete.

I looked up the schematic on N/A and was surprised to see it still used the 4.3 mhz IF frequency, like the pre-war FM sets used.
Those early FM sets weren't that good of a receiver, plus they drifted like mad.
Well, at least it isn't a Fremodyne!
