DESCRIPTION: Tabletop tube AM radio manufactured by Motorola in 1962 in excellent condition! Original factory molded avocado green color not painted. Original factory applied green grill paint. No repaints, oversprays, or touch ups to exterior cabinet. None needed. Picks up AM stations clearly and loudly around the dial without need of external antenna attachment. Cabinet is in excellent condition. No cracks, chips, or major scratches. No chips on any of the sharp corners which is uncommon. This radio is over 60 years old!  Grill is in excellent condition with no paint chips, dulling, or rub-off. Front metal fascia is in excellent condition with no rust, oxidation, or major rub-off. Bottom front Motorola metal logo plate is missing. The original knobs are in excellent condition. Tuning pointer little nib is chipped off. No missing ink, smudges, or rub-off on tuning dial lettering. The tuning dial works fine and smooth no slipping. All paper and wax capacitors have been replaced with modern equivalents so this radio has another 50+ years or more of playing time! The tubes are working fine. All out-of-spec resistors have been replaced with modern correct value and voltage equivalents. There is no loud or pervasive hum. There is no loud or pervasive static between stations unless you operate near modern megahertz devices. The set has been aligned according to factory specifications. Backing board is in excellent condition with crisp square corners. Original factory matching avocado green color. So nice! The power cord and safety polarized plug is a brand new replacement including new stress relief bushing with no cracks, or splits. No exposed wiring. The radio has been thoroughly cleaned and inspected. All wiring has been thoroughly checked for possible bridging and weak solder connection. Comes from non-smoking, mature, clean professional environment.
