I found this ancient peice. I got it from a guy who paid the original owner $40 for it some years ago. The guy who originally owned it claimed it was the first panasonic transistor receiver and was very desireable. Is it??? I have no clue...its built like a tank and its in farely good condition for its age except for the fact that the 3 fuses are missing in the back...including their holders. Anyone know anything about on of these....Is it worth getting it repaired. I would be very curious to know what it sounds like . Does anybody know when its from...Looks to me like its mid to late 60's maybe earlier. Looks very complex and well made. Please give info. -Ross

The fuses are missing. There is absolutly no power. It also needs fuse caps. I am sure i can find the fuses and the caps. I took it to a shop and they told me it also needs a new power supply, but that is what they always say. NEW POWER SUPPLY $120, $140, $160. They are a bunch of theiving liers. I bet if I just foudn the fuses and the caps I would have a working receiver. Do you know what year it is from or anything at all about it? Please let me know? Where can I get a moded one? -Ross
