Hi Paul.? I had an NC-98 and a NC-190 years ago.? I liked the 98 better than the 190.? The 190 was very drifty and it had no RF stage for the AM broadcast band.? My sons now have them and they still work after I repaired and aligned them.? Good luck with your restoration.? Email me if you have any questions.? Maybe I can help you out.
