I restored a WR-212 for my dad. Nice radio.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.

Odd too that you found it in Beaver-town for $20. Most of the old radios up there are over-priced or re-porpoised.
Just finished a WR-22.

That looks like yet another rebadged American Bosch sold as a Westinghouse. It's too bad that the American Westinghouse company didn't follow the lead of their Canadian cousins in Hamilton designing and building their own sets, although since it's a Bosch it's probably a decent performer.
