BTW, you guys notice any similarities in this radio:
I find it interesting that it is almost the same radio - it is the same chassis - turned on its side. Even the same veneers and trim cuts (closer on 126). Also compare the 5-s-126 "cube". This seems to illustrate the evolution from a "tombstone" to the rectangular table radio of later years - all in the same model year, all with the same chassis. And Yes, all with the same blue trim.
P.S. I sold this radio several years ago to a fellow that had tinnitus. He could sleep better with the radio on and wanted a radio with style.
