Electronically, the radio works only on the shortwave bands. Also,
the dial cord is broken. I've spent hours trying to figure out how to
string the cord (it's quite complicated), and finally gave up. I'll have
to order a schematic to figure it out.
This imposing Airline radio is also known as the "Global". It has
AM, as well as Shortwave bands. The dial lists foreign cities on
one side, with the band numbers on the other side. I picked this one
up at a junk shop. The case shined up very well! The gray speaker
cover needs some touch up paint (you can see some reddish-pinkish
material where the paint has scraped off).
