Hi Everyone - new member alert - Bill joined !

[Billg167]

Hey everyone. I just recently joined, and i just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Bill. and I'm from Baltimore Maryland in the USA. I originally joined this site in an attempt to find a Zenith R99 Boom Box to replace the one that was stolen from me as a kid. I worked for a year in my Dad's repair shop to save the money for it, and about a year later I was mugged in my own neighborhood and they took my Zenith !! I loved that Box, and I should have replaced it soon after it was stolen, but couldn't afford another one. I search ebay frequently to find one - no luck.
Now I am looking forward to reading all the posts in the topics, and chatting with everyone !

Finding your teenage bbx is great. I think that's how most of us started. Luckily some still have their's. Good luck to you and happy posting

Does that box have strap loops or are they just clamped around the handle?

Oh, and welcome!

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone !!
I'm not sure if it's an AKA to GE or Radio Shack, but it is definately possible.
I'll look into it more now that you have given me something to work with.

Regards,
Bill
