Well mine is unrestored as I originally received it 20 years ago. On AM 
(even SWBC) I have to retune 2 or 3 times during the first 30 to 45 minutes 
after that it settles down & plays fine. SSB is a different story during 
that warm up time. Lots more (than what is needed for AM) retuning.

But then my other Halli's drift too until they warm up inside...
