Hmm, then I wonder why somone online would say that one would need to be careful around the old Zenith Transoceanic radios with the tubes in them then? Because I did honestly come across an article on one of these antique radio forums (not this one I don't think, maybe Audio Karma or ARF) that mentioned that some of the tubes in the Zenith Transoceanic Radios were Radioactive and that one needed to be careful not to break the tubes or one might risk getting radioactive poisoning.
