Case is unbreakable plastic, guaranteed 5 years, in four 2-tone combinations.
Features an exclusive "pop-up" rotoscope antenna concealed in the top of the cabinet, powerful alnico PM speaker, wide tuning range 535 - 1620 kHz. Unbreakable cabinet is available in four lovely two-tone combinations with modern charcoal-toned grille and golden metal trim".
