Scored a Norelco-Philips Shortwave set

Hey antique radio section, How is everyone tonight?

I posted here maybe twice ever because i collect HiFi stereo gear primarily, but look forward to broadening my horizons and getting into classic radio sets.

Anyway, I got this radio in a local thrift store for 40 dollars, which might be too much (?) but It works great and is in immaculate shape. It receives SW1, 2 , and am/fm. Has inputs for recorder/gram ? The front states it is "Bi-Ampli" which i suppose means bi amped and has tone controls arranged in a push button fashion, for reverb, modeste, fidelita, . I guess it is italian ? Help me I am clueless here. the chassis is nice, uses 6bq5 tubes . Nice config there. heres the pictures, I'm eager to know about this radio please share if you know! thanks and happy holidays! oh , and some badge is missing on the bottom, note the glue residue.
