Cosmetic Condition:
Good vintage condition with minor signs of use.

Small paint chips along the upper front edge.
-
Front panel, lettering and controls remain generally neat.
-

-
Please examine the photographs for the exact cosmetic condition.
Working Condition:
Fully working – with modified output connections.
The tuner operates correctly and receives radio signals.
Important: The original variable output potentiometer is defective and cannot be repaired. As a workaround, the variable output sockets have been connected in parallel with the fixed output sockets.
Consequently, both sets of RCA outputs provide the same fixed-level audio signal. The original variable output level adjustment is no longer functional.
This modification does not prevent the tuner from being used with a conventional amplifier.
Service Performed:
-
Defective variable output potentiometer identified.
-
Variable output connections wired in parallel with the fixed outputs.
-
Both output pairs now provide fixed-level audio.
