Radio Jay checks out the RCA Globe Trotter radios!

Anyone still have one of these? Sadly, I no longer do.    https://radiojayallen.com/the-rca-globe-trotters-radios-unsung-heroes/
The best two statements of advice that I've ever gotten are from my brother-in-law in the early 1990's. 1st one, when I bought a used '89 Olds Cutless, my bro-in-law said, "Congratulations!!! You've just bought a deficit!". The other, was on a work environment, " No matter where you go, it's going to be f***'ed -up!". No truer words have been spoken.

Nope, my future wife's cat took mine out about '86. It was the top of the line model from '68 my Uncle got for my Grandpa. That thing was a beast on the low bands and MW.
