I've been in this hobby quite a few years myself. Once you get the "bug", it's hard to keep under control.

 There is a RCA console from 1937 that is at a local Flea market for $30 with P-P 6F6's. It would be a loud one with good fidelity. I keep telling myself that I don't need another radio, I don't have the space , but the temptation is strong.......

 I may go ahead and get it - then figure out where to put it and what to do with it later   Icon_problem  .
