I have not used this set in a while, simple 6 tuber, extra tube helps. Funny how some sets get pushed to the back of your collection. I always liked the cabinet as to me it has a design that is very 1940's. Broadcast Band only.

Popped in a new grille cloth, looks nice under the wooden grill. Plays well and picks up my 250 watt beautiful music station very well. So will go with her for a week or so, I am making an effort to play through my sets, see what's playing well and what may need help or need to be moved. 

Sometimes simple is good. Even in Radioland.  Icon_wink
