Channel Master was a big name here in Ulster County which is in SE New York. Many know them for TV antennas and rotors. They also sold transistor radios made by Sanyo. My favorite was the Super Fringe radio. It was an 8 transistor beauty that I had as a kid. AM only and I breifly had several the pull AM 740 from Toronto really well. Lately I have been fooling with transistor radios as they take up less room. Wife Factor you know.
It might be interesting to find out who makes the GE Super Radios. I have a Super Radio I. Cant beleive how much a good one goes for on the 'Bay. A mint one in a box went for $275. One without the box $160. Made in Taiwan. Its got a good AM section and an OK FM section. All for $43! The Super Radio is made in China. Its AM section is good with a better FM than the I. Got another coming off the "Bay. Weak AM section. Will see. Nothing like a good project
