We employ the latest modern technical instrumentation, equipment and facilities necessary to accurately adjust and align our radio offerings for optimum performance approaching "like new" as closely as can be.When searching Ebay and the other used/pre-owned merchandising web sites for your next radio equipment, be sure to carefully read their caveats and disclaimers that have often become 'code words' for radio equipment that doesn't work or works very poorly. You will often typically encounter statements like : "for Parts or Repair", "As is", "not tested", "hasn't been powered up in "X" number of years", "seller not experienced or qualified to evaluate the condition", etc, etcthen, in the "Full Description' you find optimistic encouraging claims like "maybe it works fine, I just don't know ..."Please beware, there are intentionally unscrupulous Sellers that are nothing but scams hiding behind these statements hoping to avoid recourse when you receive their junk radios and other equipment, knowing full well that what they're selling is non-functioning.Radio Scout was born of an inspiration to raise the quality standards and integrity of buying and selling vintage radios, ham radios, military radios, and domestic residential home listening broadcast radios.In the event that you have never experienced the reception quality and performance of the top brand name vacuum tube radios from the 1930s, 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s , top shelf manufacturers including :Collins Radio, Hallicrafters, Hammarlund, National Radio, and many others, you will be truly amazed. Do not think 'quaint, compromised, out-dated, etc.' . Operating these radios is to experience the unique sound and feel that just can't be experienced from today's latest and greatest semiconductor and digital radio technology. These masterpieces of 20th century engineering render a radio experience in a class like no other.Imagine, that beginning with the sound waves emanating from the other person speaking into the microphone, these travel continuously across the way and become the sound that you're hearing from your loudspeaker or headphones, you are connected to the same waveform that is passing instantaneously through the unbroken chain of the physical analog medium. With today's digital radio electronics, what we are hearing is a stream of numbers that approximates the original voice, then again converting those numbers back to an 'approximation' of the original sound waves. The difference of this reality is truly striking ! What you hear is the nuance of rich tones and the dynamic punch of the person transmitting into the air waves. These vintage radios represent the pinnacle of technological achievement of their time !Radio Scout guarantees complete satisfactory operating condition and in case there arises any latent operational issue detracting from your complete satisfaction the equipment is guaranteed by remedy or by return & refund.Shipped with FedEx Ground or FedEx Home Delivery.
