I'm considering picking up two consoles this weekend. My interest is mainly in a 610. Due to a proviso that 'both must go,' I'm towing a 38-38 along with me. It will be my introduction to the farm radio experience which I am mildly excited about. I asked the seller if the radio had been upgraded for AC use only because he said it last played about ten years ago (haven't they all?) Anyway, he said it had a cord and plug and I noticed a contraption in the bottom of the cabinet which I did not recognize (see attached.) Can anyone please educate me on the purpose of this mystery part? Thanks in advance.
