Description: RCA RGH10E AM Radio 1965 Repaired Works Good Vintage VTG Made in American Ryukyus (Okinawa) in 1965. American Ryukyus is a string of islands south of Okinawa that was under U.S. control until returned to Japan prefecture in 1972. (I get a kick out of things made in nontraditional locations) The previous owner said this radio worked, but they could “only find one station”. Confirmed, this radio had a broken variable capacitor (tuner box) and where the tuner stripped out landed on a local strong station. I replaced the tuner and the radio worked very well. While I had the radio apart I replaced its five original capacitors with new replacements. Regardless of how well the radio appeared to work, I found that one of its original capacitors was shorted, and the rest were well out of tolerance. The radio is in good used condition. It’s clean. Nothing missing. Nothing broken. No chips. No cracks. The chrome trim does show signs of use. Please see my photos. I usually service the vintage radios I sell on eBay. Serviced = I clean the volume control, check the radio’s alignment, and check its current draw. It’s loud. Volume control goes smoothly from totally silent to blazing overload loud. It produces a clean and clear sound. It’s sensitive. I was able to easily zoom straight to the local weak stations in my area I use to confirm a radio is working correctly. It is. I ship USPS Flat Rate. A tracking number will be provided the following business day after purchase. I will combine shipping when applicable, so please see my other cool old radios for sale. -karl : )_
