Congrats bill looks very cool.
I remember a lot of items designed like that back then.

My first radio was an all red transistor radio that looked a lot like yours, I really loved that simple little AM radio and it's what got me started on boomers.

We baby boomers & gen Y's love our nostalgic stuff. Man in '76 I was 12 years old and living on the beach every day, My older cousin introduced me to the wacky baccy, I surfed the back beach breaks with the older kids and thought I was king of the world when I kissed leggy blond Karin Cooper, Fleetwood Mac, Joe Cocker and Abba on the radio, Pink Floyd, Kahvas Jute & Taman Shud on the record player, good times indeed.

Very cool radio bill. I hope it brings back all the memories of the good times.

Well I got this little am radio from my past today I put a 9 volt battery in it and it worked not many am channels but in the day when I got this there was an am station in chicago that played some cool rock music WLS 89.0 (not anymore though)
