And might be valued at well over $30.My father took me to a store to choose a transistor radio for my 13th birthday. It cost something like $30.00, which was probably quite a lot back then. It was an orange Sony in a brown leather case. I kept it into my 20's .. wish I'd hung onto it. I'd bet it would still work now.
We picked up a wooden table-top radio, in the early 80's, that we listened to short-wave on. Ended up giving it to a friend. I should enquire whether he still has it.
Good job!There are a lot of decent radios out there now that don't cost much for what you get. I got one of these a year ago after going through a number of reviews on YouTube. Great coverage, sensitivity, selectivity, and sound quality.

But there are many more out there as well and 2024 models are probably even more refined.
