  • I was raised in L.A. in the 60's. Radio was new and exciting. Channels, each set to one genre. In 1973, I got my first, transistor, with coupons from my mother's S&H green stamps. Small, red plastic, with a beige, ear piece. I could slip the radio, into my bra, run the cord around my strap and into my ear. The long hair kept it hid. I was living in a world, with my own sound track and nobody knew, but me.  I have to grin a little, when I see kids today, with their i-pods and ear buds!

  • My oldest radio right now is a GE P-725B from around 1958-1959.  I had to replace four out of five transistors, all of the electrolytic capacitors and one paper capacitor. The thing is extraordinarily sensitive and incredibly loud.

  • Great stuff! As transistor radios got better, we had to make sure it said "Solid State" on it, but not sure why.

  • Very good video of a fine collection. Thanks for sharing it.

    That's a great song, also. I'd never heard it before.
