Most of you probably saw this on Ebay last week.

I bought it for $26.03 and shipping. The cabinet is a little rough, but I think I can save it. The chassis is pretty clean, but the speaker has a repairable hole in it. It has a nice looking globe rectifier, but one plate test very low on emission and indeed I can see quite a bit of the oxide coating missing from one of the filaments. Icon_sad

Hopefully this will be a next winter project.
