The thing is that the cheapie metal sets like that RCA are far more rare than the nice wood consoles. When the cheapies crapped out 30 years ago, they all got thrown away whereas the nice consoles tended to get kept as furniture. So now, the collectors want the rare sets and pay more.

Think about this: When was the last time you saw a plastic Wards Airline color portable from the 80s? But eBay and Craigslist are flooded with big Zenith consoles from that time.

Chris, It was Gary! I hope he knows what to do with this set, he has testing equip but.. He's not an AK'er.
