This set contains 6 tubes with  6 AM and 9 FM circuits.  This radio has 2 loudspeakers and separate  bass and treble tone adjustments.  It also features an external speaker connection, and a record player input which accepts any audio input such as Bluetooth, IPAD etc.  with the use of a proper cable.  Although it is set up to play in the US, the radio was designed for the German market.  The faceplate is in German and the FM (UKW) range is the typical 88.5 to 100 MHz.  It pulls in stations nicely.  In addition to FM the radio  also has Broadcast, Long Wave and Short Wave.
 
The radio measures  approx. 23 x 10 x 14 in.  
 
This cabinet is in ORIGINAL condition...NOT restored.  It has some imperfections that adds to its more than 65 year life.  The finish has been touched up as necessary and polished to a nice shine.  This is a true historical antique!
 
I removed the chassis from the cabinet and cleaned and dusted everything. I tested the tubes, capacitors and resistors. Anything that was not in acceptable ranges were replaced. Any brittle wiring was replaced. The pushbutton assembly was cleaned and treated with DeoxIT D5 and works smoothly. The plastic trim was cleaned and hand polished. I did replace the magic eye tuning tube with a fully working equivalent so it shines bright and responds well to station changes. The speaker grill cloth was recently replaced with new fabric that compliments its overall appearance. 
 
This is a German radio that has been set to work in the US.  The dial is in German and translates as follows: UKW is FM, MITTEL is mediumwave or AM, LANG is longwave, KURZ is shortwave and AUS is OFF.  If you have questions about operating this  radio, feel free to ask about specific functions like tuning to FM or AM, switching between modes, adjusting settings to achieve optimal reception or playing an external device through this radio.
