Storing Antique Radios in Winter

[Rog Beltmann]

I store my vintage radios and guitars in a cool, dry room in the winter. Mid 40's to low 50's temperature wise.

Be aware though, back, say in the '80's, '30's/'40's radios were only around 50 years old or so and typically withstood attic/basement storage well. Now those same sets have another 40 years of aging on them. Putting these very old sets in unstable environments is risky.
