Thanks Ron! What a great sight. What a lot of work. Thank YOU!!!
Now I see my radio there. So I have a 38-40K. Why K? I see the table top model is 38-40T which makes sense.
How does it differ from the 39-39? The cabinet seems the same, but the 38-39 is cheaper. The radio must be different.
We live in an off grid solar powered house so I have always been wary about buying old radios. I feared they would hog power because of the tubes. I was pleased to discover this one only uses about 30 watts! I assume they had to make them power frugal so they could run on battery for more than a few hours.
Thanks,
Todd
