  • This 10 tube version has nothing to do with the picture!

    The Radio retailing lists two items but no model allocation.
    The following prices,weights and sizes are given:


    - $ 625; 177 lb; 30x49x18 in (wxhxd);. That fits the 8 tube 37A (the 9 tuber too), which is pictured.

    - $ 850; 264 lb; 41x46x22 in (wxhxd); That applies to the 40A with 10 tubes, the top model of the season. Not pictured!

    The 10 tube model must not be related to the picture!
