1970’s radio from yardsale – Restoration

Now in running condition, this is a Gold Star BM-709 radio.
Interestingly, the company was called Lucky Goldstar at one time… we now know it as LG

Later and rebranded models are believed to have the following changes:
No 6V power jack on the side
Square build sticker on the back
Much smaller battery rear plate
Plastic type variable tuning capacitor
1.5W Foster speaker (this one is a 1W by Foster)
