Just bought these 5 AM radios for $8.00 and $6.28 shipping "All in working order" it says. That's 3 bucks a radio, not bad.
It was eBay. Nice to have a few radios on hand for give aways.

Noteworthy that none of them have FM, an I just noticed one of them (on right) has a leather-like cover which is nice and we've talked about that here before:
Turns out that's a 1980 Nobility 12 Transistor 1200, made in Hong Kong https://www.radiomuseum.org/r/swing_nobility_12_transistor.html

I'm laying odds none of these go beyond 1610... So much for impulse buys, but I do want to experiment on 1400 just to see...

Yeah we all grew up with those in the 60s.
Sony made some nice ones in nice leather cases.
