A VERY good friend surprised me with this gift a couple of days ago...

Yep, it's a Magnavox CR 189 FM tuner, the correct and very elusive component I have been looking for to complete my 1946/7 Regency Symphony! This effectively turns this set into a 21 tube monster!!

For those of you who have not experienced one of these sets, I STRONGLY recommend them.
