EBR-I in Arco Idaho is a neat trip, too...

The biggest industry here is actually cattle, probably followed by potatoes, corn wheat, sugar beats, mint, onions, alfalfa(says spanky) .....We pretty much grow anything.

I shouldn't joke so much about the Gem State lest my fellow Idahoans take offense. Some day I'll make a pilgrimage to Rigby and visit the museum. In the meantime, there are lots of old barns, attics, and sheds that may be harboring some gem of vintage electronics.

I found 2 roundie color sets, a 1960 zenith B&W high fidelity set with space command 400, 1 1950 philco TV and a 1949 Motorola ts18,a 1954 RCA B&W 21" TV, Not to mention a 1938 GE floor radio, a 1929 Majestic TRF radio with push pull 45 outputs, a cool looking RCA portable tube radio, a 1960 Motorola AM/FM console stereo with VM changer. There is cool stuff even in Idaho!
