Condition The Toshiba BomBeat 9 RT-230S is in fair vintage condition. The tape cassette door is missing, and the tape player is non-operational, likely needing new belts and possible motor repair. The FM radio successfully picks up stations, but other bands (SW1, SW2, MW) did not receive signals. The outer shell is slightly separating on the left seam. The telescopic antenna is good. Unit shows general cosmetic wear consistent with age. The front panel is separating a bit on the left side. Comes with its AC power cable. This item is vintage, as indicated by its design aesthetic and cassette tape technology, characteristic of the early 1980s. Please see all photos for a complete depiction of the condition and feel free to reach out with any questions.

Testing The FM radio functions and tunes into stations clearly. The tape deck does not operate (play, fast forward, rewind fail); the mechanism doesn't engage. MW, SW1, and SW2 radio bands did not pick up receivable stations. The unit powers on via the included AC cable.
