German Wehrmacht WWII Military Radio Torn.E.b is Operational

The Torn.E.b was a workhorse of the German armed forces under Adolf Hitler. It was a very basic, 4-tube regenerative receiver. This example is completely unaltered from the time it was made 66 years ago. 7 out of 8 of the frequency ranges were perfectly tuned, while the other range was just slightly out of tune. I just had to replace one vacuum tube in the receiver to get it working.

How difficult was it to find a replacement valve? I assume they're all different?

I am constantly amazed at the quality of German military equipment made during wartime.
