This radio is sold as an antique radio. It has not been tested and should be checked over and re-caped before using. Check the pictures out. they are the best part of the discription. I have tried to show all angles of the radio so that you could see the good and the bad points. I will pack this radio very carefuly with extra packing to be sure it arrives in good phyiscal shape when you get it. Ask if you have any questions. Check out both shipping options for the best price.
