Rod: Does the National 60 have an analog tuner or a digital tuner? 8O

I know, I know, it's digital, you use your fingers to tune it... grin

To be serious: I would be interested in seeing a photo as well as some discussion of how well it performs. According to DXing.com, this is an early 60's 5 tube. I see these older tube sets for sale every so often, I am tempted to buy one but I figure I will be disappointed in the performance and then it will just sit around in a corner somewhere taking up space???
