This is the ebay radio that I was asking opinions of on the D&S forum a week or so ago. It arrived today and is in very good condition.
This is a circa 1962 GE transistorized AM clock radio w/ CD markings that is AC operated only. Upon looking at the chassis, there are many Japanese components; but, I suspect the radio was assembled in the USA. This radio does have a dial light and plays fairly well; but, I do see some new caps in it's future. This is the oldest AC only transistor radio that I've run into. I guess the reason they were not made earlier is because of the high cost of line operated transistor output stages and the increased cost of high value electrolytic caps needed for transistor radios.
