OK, here's another one of those common as dirt GE clock radios that they made so many of during the '60's in both tube and SS versions. This one is a model C505D from 1966 and needed new filter capacitors. The main reason I got this was because it actually is in decent shape. Most of these that I find have moderate-to-serious cosmetic issues.
Does anyone know if GE continued to make an AA5 radio after '66? I know they made a hybrid SS/tube AM/FM radio as late as '68; so, I feel like it's possible that they offered an AA5 that late.
Here's a youtube video that I made of the radio:
