  • obviously the owner lives in Germany. Warm mellow FM sound. Should have switched in that narrow filter while tuning ssb. I remember seeing a catalog price of 1800 dollars in the late seventies. A reviewer in WRTV handbook commented that a digital display would have been more appropriate then a motorized analog dial for the price class. In retrospect however their approach made for a one of a kind collectors item: cleverly engineered. Could have shot a brighter view of panel details though.
