In 1971, I was just a little kid and I remember on Friday nights, I used to stay up late and see the Brady Bunch and the Partridge Family on TV. By the time the Odd Couple came on, I was hustled off to bed.

Didn't know what a microprocessor was in those days but I did have one of those portable AM transistor radios that ran on a 9 volt battery and had one of those earplugs that only went in one ear because without stereo, why bother with two?

I used to sneak that radio under the covers at night where I'd listen to baseball games or some Top 40 radio.

I still love radio.

I am listening to WBCQ on short wave right now.

I have one of those too!

I had a GE 6 transistor radio that I hid under my pillow too. Even at that age, Grandma turned me onto talkshows and later, the CBS Radio Mystery Theater. I still have it somewhere. Now I use a 1965 8 Transistor Magnavox and a Grundig G6 Aviator Buzz Aldrin edition. The latter is the size of a cigarette pack, gets 150 kc to 30 Mc, FM and VHF-Air, runs a long time on 2 AA batteries. There was a time I noticed my battery life was shorter, until Mom told me she uses it to listen to Hannity while I'm at work. B-)

BTW, I also have a Heinz bottle ketchup 6 transistor radio from 1980, I also have the box too.
