Scott FM tuner

All,

I bought this, from Bob Dobush, a couple of weeks ago.  I just got around to photographing it, and thought you all might like to take a look.  Unfortunately, I have no cabinet, but am grateful for the tuner.  I also thought it was unusual because the dial looks different to me than others I have seen.  Let me know if I'm wrong.  Serial number also enclosed for Kent.

    I thought my dial was a little different, because of the red paint.  However, I noticed that Dave's had red paint that was just faded out.  Mine must have spent more time in a closet, or in a console cabinet with doors.  I remember you (Kent) telling me that the serial number would begin with "HH," and thought it was weird mine started with "JJ."

    Make that "LL," not "JJ."

    Took a really close look at my FM tuner dial with my phone's LED. No red paint.

    Rather: most graphics are printed on the back side of the glass in white. In ivory paint only on the front side of the glass, SCOTT and the MC frequency numbers only   41 42 44 etc

    Chrome tube covers on all tubes except the 5Y3 rectifier.

    Diagram in Riders Vol 14, page 1 of Scott section.

    is the 1232 tube the industrial version of loctal 7G7 ?

    And a search suggests an 1853 sub is either a 6AB7 or 6AC7 ?
