GOLDEN SHIELD 9170 (6) BAND RADIO - COMPLETE & WORKING - LW, MW, FM, SW 1-3

Description

GOLDEN SHIELD 90 WAVE BAND TRANSWORLD- MODEL 9170 (6) BAND RADIO - COMPLETE & WORKING - RECEIVES WELL - LW, MW (AM), FM AND SW 1-3
RADIO WAS ORIGINALLY MARKETED AROUND 1970. THIS RADIO IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH EXCEPTION
THAT A SMALL PIECE WAS BROKEN FROM THE BATTERY COVER LATCH AND THAT THE BATTERY COVER WAS BROKEN IN HALF. FORTUNATELY THE COVER HAS BE REGLUED AND THE BROKEN OUT PIECE IS SMALL AND DOES NOT HAMPER CLOSURE AND LATCH. IT HOLDS WELL IN LATCHED POSITION. BATTERY HOLDER IS NEW AND REPLACES THE CLAM SHELL TYPE HOLDER WHICH WAS BROKEN.
THIS RADIO COMES COMPLETE WITH ORIGINAL ANTENNA AND ALL CONTROLS. RADIO WAS TESTED BY BATTERIES  AND RECEIVED BROADCASTS ON ALL BANDS. RADIO DOES NOT INCLUDE ADAPTER SO I WAS NOT ABLE TO TEST IT. HOWEVER, I HAVE NO REASON TO THINK THAT IT WILL NOT WORK WITH APPROPRIATE AC ADAPTER. VOLUME IS STRONG AND RECEPTION IS SENSITIVE. DIAL LIGHT WORKS. AFC & BFO CONTROLS WORK. TUNING LIGHT WORKS. FINE TUNING WORKS GOOD.
THIS IS A GREAT RADIO - IDENTICAL TO THE SHARP FV1700 MODEL RADIO. ASIDE FROM THE DAMAGE NOTED ABOVE, THIS RADIO WORKS GREAT AND CERTAINLY IS AN EYE CATCHER. WOULD MAKE A GREAT ADDITION TO A COLLECTOR WITH THE TWIN SHARP FV-1700 RADIO. RADIO WILL BE SHIPPED BY UPS INSURED. THANKS FOR LOOKING.
