That compositon board link between the band switch and the pushbutton broke on mine, so I made a replacement from plastic of the same thickness. So far, so good!

I still need to tweak those contacts so they make consistently good contact, but at least it's better than it was.

You're right, Eric, this radio sounds great on all bands, but especially FM! I'm amazed at how good it sounds, properly adjusted. I would love to hear the push-pull version of this radio, the console with the record player ... anyone have one?
