I bought it, liked it, and listened to it quite a bit.
I bought a special device at Ginza Shellman that could play radio from a gramophone, and listened to the radio from the gramophone (credenza) for quite a while, but gradually the vacuum tubes got weaker, and I asked a certain person to send the radio to England, where they told me they couldn't find the vacuum tubes, so I sent it, and it took a little over a year to replace the tubes, which cost a fair amount, and I listened to the radio with the new tubes, and then I just left it as a decoration. A 200v transformer is required.
