He's a ham, too. Suggest you call: Bill Gabb, K1BO, (619) 692-4321. I'm sure he can recommend books that will help you. He can also give you some idea of what your "baby" is worth if you give him the make and model, etc. He's also a good source for tubes and other hard-to-find parts. Tell him I sent you. Some of those floor model radios are really hot receivers in that they were made for people who lived in Upper Cornfield, Nebraska and wanted to listen to WGN in Chicago and WNBC in New York; likewise to BBC and Tokyo Rose. Have fun! 73--Jim Price, K6ZH, (619) 225-2665 -------
