The only things I know of that are actually radioactive are the meter faces in the R-3XX series of recievers. There was a big frou-frou awhile back about it, but then it was realised that no deaths from radiation have ever been attributed to an R-390A, since the amount was so small & you would have to press yr face up against said meter for something like 45 years to get a larger-sized zit. Seems like there was a radiation scare from color TVs back in the early 1960s, but that was solved ages ago. Don't eat the dust in the back of an old radio or TV & youshould have practically nothing to worry ABOUT.-SANDY g.
