[Boatanchors] AR-8516

[Meir-WF2U]

Roger,

Congratulations on acquiring this fine receiver.
I'm also a proud owner of one.
What would you like to know?
(BTW I have the original manual for it).
I can assure you that it's not among the heaviest receivers ;-)  .

I purchased an RCA AR-8516 receiver at an estate  sale. First one of these I

have owned. Not much info available on the internet.  Anyone have experience

with this radio? I was able to order a manual. Looks to  be in pretty nice 
shape. In a beautiful cabinet. Boy is this thing heavy! My  back will never
be the 
same after dead lifting this radio out of the trunk of my  car and carrying 
it into the house.
