I'll revisit this, but it will have to wait until after the first of the year. Back into the wilderness (chemo) tomorrow, and my next "good" weekend is Dec. 22-23 during which there will be a lot of visitors. I might be able to look at it on 12/23. We shall see. I guess I'll consider the 6T2 to be my Christmas radio this year. For those of you not in the know, every year I restore a radio around Christmastime and then call that my Christmas radio.

Last year it was a Fisher tuner.
