This old Motorola has served me faithfully on and off since I bought it at an auction for $1 with my allowance back in October 1977 at the age of 6. My mom had a local radio repairman/neighbor change out the caps and some tubes for me in exchange for a chocolate cake

I play it every morning while I'm getting ready for work.

Also, there's my old Bendix 636C, awaiting repair, which sits on my (messy) desk. Saved up for that one, it was $7.50....same auction, November 1977.
