Josh-
I am truly intrigued by the radio, and would be interested were it not for the half dozen others I have around here: However, I noticed something you never mentioned, which may have interest for others on the list(and have replied "All" so they will know-) This is not only a neat AM/SW/Police/Aviation/Amateur receiver, but it is ALSO appears to be a a CLOCK! Took me a minute, but the face is clearly there, but I am not sure about the works, as I can't get a look inside at how the needles move. I am imagining there may be an inside lighted marked for the frequency, and the two needles seen are the clock hands. Somebody can check on this, but that is how it looks to me- 12 through 11 in the normal clockface order in Roman numerals around the outside edge...
I could be wrong, but it worth it to take a look!
