Anyone heard of or know anything about a Fisher 600T FM receiver? Picked one up today at a yard sale. Pretty heavy and I thought it was a tube unit until I opened it up at home. Its solid state but looks pretty well made. Haven't hooked it up or anything and there's not much info on internet about it. All in all in pretty good cosmetic shape and it has the wood cabinet.

    The Fisher Doctor

    I've picked up a couple 400 series and an 1800 in my travels. They are neat to find and fun to play with, but I always move them down the road. I usually strip them down for parts if they are slagged.

    There's a pic of the guts of a 400T in the "Show Me Your ****...." thread. 20+ tubes and all point to point wiring is real impressive to see in person.

    It's just a reference bookmark, not for your specific model information. I'm aware of that model not being present. You might contact Al and see if he would be interested in pictures of your model to help fill that empty slot.

    Happy Listening!

    Well sort of, but more buttons and more "beefy". I'll get some pics when I get a chance.

    Oh, I forgot to mention. Cost me $7.00:rolleyes:
