Nice Scott tuner that has been aligned & serviced, have work order showing service, will disclose to buyer. $150.00
From the fmtunerinfo Web site:
The LT-112B Broadcast Monitor Tuner was made for several years but is still somewhat rare. It replaced the LT-112 and was sold as a kit until Scott changed its lineup and introduced the 433 digital tuner in 1970. Our contributor Tuck tells us that the LT-112B has "no MOSFETs (JFETs), no ICs and no ceramic IF filters, and has only a 3-gang front end. In spite of these 'shortcomings,' it is a remarkable performer which is as quiet or quieter than my supertuners, especially in the stereo mode, where good signal-to-noise ratios are really difficult to achieve. All its many functions are MANUALLY selected, much to my preference; it is stable without need of AFC; it delivers superb audio quality (in those increasingly rare instances where the stations broadcast it) - and all this from a kit! The only thing it lacks is high selectivity, though it is at least adequate in this respect. This could probably be addressed with realignment of the IF strip. I think this tuner represents what superior engineering can do with limited resources, as it puts most more recent designs to shame."
Our panelist Bob agrees: "I bought one of these and, after an alignment, really like it. The LT-112B uses FETs instead of the nuvistor tubes that the LT-112 had in the RF front end, and has more features than the LT-112. The 112B has the look inside of a tube tuner but with solid state devices, with an IF stage using double-tuned IF transformers that look very much the same as the ones used in Scott tube tuners. The MPX and audio output stages are all discrete, and seem to be a bit more complex than the tube tuner versions of the same, with more filtering. All in all, the 112B gives up very little in the way of reception sensitivity and selectivity to much later more modern units, a testament to the Scott design team. The sound is very good, totally stock. I was able to coax the detector, a ratio detector type, into perfect alignment and came away with a reading of .07% distortion at 1 kHz, which I don't think you'll ever see in the data sheet specs for this unit. The stereo light was burned out as purchased, and it appeared to need 2.5v, so I used two green LEDs in series to replace it and it now works perfectly. This unit has a lot of nice features - muting, mono/stereo switching, stereo blend, and low-pass noise filter. One high-quality meter display is multitasked via a switch for signal strength, multipath, center tune, and 'align' (remember it was a kit). I have to admit the LT-112B is really a surprise, but these units are really the most neglected part of the tuner market it would seem." 
This tuner had no bottom cover, so I made one from clear plexiglass. Thanks for looking!
