Ron, the one I have is tube type. It is a rather rare model with AM. Like many other manufactures at the time, Sherwood was building a lot of receivers with only FM tuners. To be honest , I think it is a S7800, might be a S7900. I play it all the time but look at the name plate almost never. And it is over at the shop, but I will check. In any case it is very similar to this one:

Only it also has AM. It has 7868 PP output tubes for about 35-40W per channel. It also has a lot of neat stuff you don't see today like phase reversal and narrow/wide band setting for the AM - like a 1937 Philco.
