Re: Radios
Retlaw, money was short, kids didn't have their own radios, when my aunt finally gave me a portable radio I couldn't afford the batteries, it ate them.
You could listen to the crystal set in bed with earphones and the aerial wire hanging all round the room on the picture rail, no batteries.
As for obsolete, you can still buy the kits although they cost a hell of a lot more than a miniature pocket radio. Just a scientific novelty now.
