Long story short: I bought this receiver from a listmember as a gift
for a friend. He also sent me most of the correct knobs for it, which
arrived fine. UPS 'lost' the radio, then found the opened crate sans
receiver. Seller reimbursed me promptly, UPS eventually paid his
claim, so it became their radio if found, and after it was found was
apparently sold at auction by UPS to this guy. The assumption is that
that someone (at or in a UPS facility) read 'electronics' on a big
heavy crate and saw dollar signs, opened it and discovered otherwise,
and abandoned it.

Mike, if you're reading this - I *still* have your box of knobs
sitting on the table, need to get them into the mail back to you this
week. The move south and NEAR-Fest have kept me busy.
