GE "long range" AM tube radio from 1965

[radiotvnut]

Here's a 6-tube GE AM radio, with a nice ferrite rod antenna, TRF stage, and dual speakers from 1965. It's a little odd to see such a fancy tube AM-only radio that late, since things were moving towards solid state by the mid '60's. The only other "late" tube radio that I recall seeing with a TRF stage was a Zenith and they had one as late as 1968.

Also, GE was famous for using the same cabinet for many different radios. I've seen this particular cabinet used with a 5-tube AM set, a 6-tube AM set, a solid state AM set, a hybrid AM/FM set, and a solid state AM/FM set.

It will be interesting to see how well this performs, once it's fixed.
