    Description

    We are selling a unique vintage 1960 Lafayette model LT-50/KT-500 stereo-tuner for FM and AM radio.  This unit will require a multi-plex unit for listening to FM stereo as this unit as is was built when FM was one channel and AM was the second channel.  The unit was bench tested and working as is without any repair or modification.  There is wear from use/storage like scratches, scuffs and dust.  Comes with the instruction booklet, schematic and even the original receipts.  Top metal cabinet cover is missing.  Sold AS IS, please see high-res photos for more details.
    Tech Notes:
    The Tuner is all tuned up! If you’re into mono, it has great AM and FM reception.  While it is advertised as stereo, it’s from that era where one channel was broadcast on AM and the other on FM.
    For true stereo, you would need a multiplex decoder.  The unit was tweaked to it’s best potential.
