Hi Russ, I got done restoring a very nice Saba 300 Stereo Automatic radio recently---they do sound great. I had to get the power transformer rewound by Heyboer Transformers as the primary winding was shorted out and got it back 2 weeks ago and works perfectly. I recapped it and replaced 2 resistors & the bad selenium rectifier and it was a pain to restring the dial pointer for the AM/MB/SW section. The automatic tuning works great and has the optional multiplex decoder. Ken
