May 1st, 2005, 35 years ago today I bought my first "antique" radio.


That's about the same time I picked up two AA5s at the
church fair. An RCA 8X541 and a GE clock radio c435.
Neither too exciting at the time with respect to being
antiques, just old.


That was about the time I was putting the 17th coat of spar varnish on
my first RCA console to hide the splitting veneer.
