■ Condition
Please read the following carefully:

• Power: Powers up normally. Test batteries are supplied
• Operation: Operation is problem free. The volume scratchy noise has been removed and the dial lamp lights. The 120 minute timer did not run at first, but was freed by drilling the plastic case and applying lubricant and now works
• Repairs and modifications: The two switches at the right, the sensitivity / AFC switch and the band selector, were already broken off and missing when the unit was acquired. They have been rebuilt by hand from plastic rod, a brass pipe and paint, so these two parts are not original. The hole drilled for the timer lubrication has been sealed with aluminium tape
• Cosmetics: Visible cosmetic wear including scratches and scuffs consistent with age
• Note: At high volume the cabinet itself can resonate, which is a characteristic of this box-shaped body

Please note: two switch levers are hand-made replacement parts and are not original factory components. Please read the condition section carefully before purchasing.
