    I like vintage radios and here is one I have at my home.
    It is a Russian one and it is working.
    The button in the middle was missing so I put one from some other radio.
    I am sure some of the members will have old radios and I would like very much to see them.

    Just a few pics I have on my phone of just a few of the old radios I've collected. I have many more in the workshop awaiting restoration. Including a big stack of Hallicrafters IMG_20180508_205153.jpg IMG_20180421_213602.jpg IMG_20171014_183753.jpg 0520171718.jpg IMG_20170514_193103.jpg IMG_20170513_200153.jpg

    Gee if you guys didn't spend so much on watches you could afford a new radio. Very nice though. Just kidding.
    I have a few old radios myself but no pictures as of yet.

    I had been given both of these years ago, and selling them on ebay financed a large portion of my being able to purchase my Speedmaster. The first is a Dynaco Dynakit MKIV, which is essentially one half of a Dynakit ST-70. The second is a McIntosh MC-30 monoblock, which came out of my uncle's house in Binghampton NY, which is where McIntosh is based.

    My stereo uses a McIntosh 1700 receiver that has a built in radio. It is kind of a weird piece as the amp is solid state and the radio is tube.

    Like a portable to take on picnics.

    Quite rare in this condition and works well on a 9volt battery

    My oldest radio is from the 70s. It's a SONY ST-5130. DSC_0580.JPG

    Old Mullards are here as well, but inside a HIWATT Guitar Amp.
