    Product description "power's on" apparently meant a noisy volume control and no picture raster from TV, fast delivery, poor packaging but miraculously no damage inside of box, shipping material was a few wraps of thin material and paper, item was loose in box when received, see attached pictures. Seller needs to pack expensive items ... this was about $350 item poorly packaged nearly falling out of the package. Use bubble-wrap, then you can't go wrong!

    What an awesome purchase! Everything was perfect: shipping, packaging, as described, value. To find a 60-year-old item new in the box was very exciting. The regulator was removed from the packaging, points cleaned and immediately put into service. Thank you
