I liked the wavering sound of Radio Australia and the BBC coming in. Radio is so much a part of our lives; more so than hifi. I remember listening to my father's Philco; just waiting for the tubes to warm up was better than waiting for ketchup to come out of the bottle.
Oh by the way, I am NH6MA. The charm of radio has never left me.
Let me know how I can serve you better:)

(edit) By the way, I want to talk about early transistor radios too! those sonys led the way!
