If its a super-het probably better than almost anything new.
We had a late 30's Zenith console at work. Had a BIG "Wave Magnet" box antenna built in. You could turn it & get all sorts of stations nothing
else in the shop would. The average radio could only get 2 or 3.
Back then there was only AM so things were built very Good & had
to sound & recieve good.
