Greetings all!

There is a neat old one transistor radio built in a old soapbox using
CK722 transistor listed on Ebay here:

I bet someone listened to this under the bed covers with a flashlight
once or twice.

Notice that it also uses a loopstick. Very cool. Maybe someone here
will recognize it from their younger days!! Heh! Should be
interesting to see what it sells for. It is tugging on my nostalgia
strings...

Ah well..you can build a modern MK484 version with plans here:

I am not the seller. Just thought it was neat.

Too bad the soapbox separates end to end, and not top and bottom.
It's just real difficult to see and/or work on.
