There hasn't been one of these in the shop for a while - a Crosley Model 51 from about 1924 - almost 100 years old. It picks up WBZ on just a small piece of wire for an antenna, and would get much more with a better antenna. These ran on batteries when they were new - 5 volts, 22 volts and 45 volts, which I've recreated with a few modern batteries. I don't think CVS or Costco would have the correct batteries in stock.

It really sounds surprisingly good considering how little is in there - a few coils and capacitors, just two tubes.

The make believe TV shop on the set of Salem's Lot in Ipswich, MA, my Motorola sign on full display. Didn't get to peek in to see how they are using the rest of my items (test equipment, soldering iron, picture tube box, etc.) and the road is closed now for a week during filming.

There is a new version of the movie Salem's Lot being filmed in Ipswich MA next week. They are building a pretend TV shop for one of the scenes, and came by to rent a few things to go into the set. They got a few pieces of test equipment, a soldering iron, a picture tube box, and a couple of signs.
