Remco, is that stainless nickel plate or regular nickel? It looks shinier than regular nickle but that could be because it is new. Stainless nickel doesn't get the white cast and slightly blue/green tinge the way regular nickel plate does.

Either way, beautiful.

Yo Remco-  Nice one!  Question: is that receiver a DC receiver?  That is, without permanent magnets, and needing of DC current through it to energize electromagnets in it to function?
