What we like about old radios.

Today, I would like to re-visit the topic, what we like about old radios. Big news first though-- we now have a  Pinterest page. Take a look!  http://www.pinterest.com/russoldradios/pins/

Okay, back on topic. What we like about old radios. Bob, you inspired me today--and gave me a chuckle too. I thank you.

Bob said:  I know what my wife would say! ...... Old Radios,  my favorite thing about them is .....they keep my husband busy and in his shop :)  

I can certainly appreciate that!  Here are other great comments we received:

Rick Zolla                                ...the great memories they bring back.
Jim Hamann                          They work.
Mark Floyd                              They glow in the dark and sound terrific. (6V6's in push-pull)
Dooley's Treasure Chest     Don't forget the smell. True.
John Williams                        the audio is better on some old tubers without breaking the bank.
                                                     And might still be working when the sdr are DOA. Have  ts520 and 
                                                     sr46 that's many many yrs old, and use everyday,
                                                      I have many radios, many sill use the old glass stuff...its cool using 
                                                      a radio that's 20 to 50 yrs old.

Thanks for the input everyone!  Enjoyed your thoughts. As matter-of-fact, I think I'll make this an ongoing feature. If you  think of anymore, please send them to: Blog Comments. I'll save them up, and when I have enough--I'll share another batch. (Almost) better than chocolate chip cookies! Just as sweet.

Till next time,


Regards, 

Sue
