Check it out! I got this today off ebay, I went to turn it on and nothing happened, I was like "WTF?" and a few seconds later it started playing...yeah, that's right, it needed to warm up...it's got tubes in it!
It's the coolest radio ever...
Now all I need is a computer the size of my garage & I'll be set
