When I was a very young child, there was one of these in the house: it was the main source of entertainment, news, etc.; there wasn't a T.V. It was my father's pride and joy. It was that very set which awoke my interest in all things 'radio'.
73 years old and still works, you say. So it's a bit older than I am. But for me, although only a few things 'work', those that do, hurt like hell!
