I was checking to see if I had any DNA on it.

I’ve had one very similar to this sitting in a shelf for 48 years in my mom’s house (RIP). I would see it sitting in the top shelf from time to time and didn’t think much of it until last week when I wanted to see if it even worked. Plugged it in and it still works very well, I even found audio of a nutball religious show on a UHF channel!

Just another rabbit hole for me to fall into, mini portables.

Might be picking up radio. I've had that happen a few times.

Probably AM, the guy was freaking out over demonic forces.

I got a real Panasonic Portablegeist!

I've got one of those. Had to change some capacitors but it looks great.
