Overview

Here's a weather radio from the early 1980's. Because of this radio's age, it has a limited selection of channels, meaning it might not have your area's transmitter. However, if your local transmitter transmits on a channel supported by this radio, it can receive it as well as a modern radio. The volume potentiometer on mine is broken, however, this is still a nice-looking radio I'm happy to have.
