If you have some old style headphones and a wire maybe 4 feet long, ground the radio case, connect the radio to a 6v power source, stick a stripped folded over end of the wire into the antenna hole and plug the headphones into the accessory speaker hole. Turn on and tune the radio from the controls. See what you get, if anything. The Flackmaster can tell you roughly what it’s worth as a core to be sent to a rebuilder or, if it works. You can look for Packard radio on eBay for ‘as is’ radios, too. Or search for 6volt vacuum tube car radios and see what rebuilt ones go for and what it costs to rebuild. As a start.
