Very cool, and I know what ya mean. I have a Candle JTR-1287 that is one of my faves. Come to think of it, I'm gonna have to A/B it and my M70 net week just to see, lol

Only 20 bucks??!! Man what a great find! It sounds really good on the video, and its a nice, CLEAN looking Emerson, never seen that model before. Way to hunt em down Robb!

Plus gas money (and my time) if that's worth anything.... lol

I only ever seen this in illustrations (service manual etc) and always found it intriguing figuring it MUST exist if there is documentation for it but it must be a fairly rare (or unpopular) model since I never see it, still haven't seen a real live one yet! Maybe someday. Has an attractive look so I'd love to experience it just to review it, if nothing else.

I think this is the best Emerson ever made. It looks great. AKA of other boxes.

Amazing condition. Great find Robb.

From yard sale to collection prize! It was destiny

To see you plowing through the crowd, shoving old ladies out of the way to get to a radio....PRICELESS!

Would make for some great TV
