Well, Mike, I do not live in a flood prone basement, but, 15 ears ago the bottom of my water heater rotted out and I wound up with about 2 inches of water all over my 2000 sq. foot basement. I had radios  floor to ceiling everywhere. If you would like to see part of what it looked like before the flood, google “visit n4fs” . Insurance paid over $200K. I had over 2000 line items and probably about 20,000 total items on my claim, which took a year to put together. 73 – Mike

In your opinion, does this radio appear to have been under water, probably in someone's basement?

If so, the pot metal inside is probably

hopeless crumbles and everything else,

corroded beyond repair.

 

IMHO, people who stack radios in flood-prone basements need a trip to the wood shed.
