I have a National Panasonic Model R-399 I am willing to donate to whoever can pick it up from Fairfield, Brisbane.

It's been in the family about fifty years and only stopped working just last year. It unfortunately no longer has the leather case which shrunk badly a couple of years ago. There is some warping in the plastic casing at the rear and I'm not sure if the aerial is missing or stuck inside.

Useful for parts or as a holdover until you can get a better one for your collection? I have no idea.

I hope someone would like it as otherwise I'll be binning it.

Looks like it was a fairly good unit. Probably not much wrong with it.
