Be carfull with these old tube radios the capacitors can go bad and short out, and in some cases they can catch fire! If you want to deal with old tube radios get a device called a variac, you plug the veriac into the wall and then plug the tube radio in to it, it will limit the current and if there is any issues with the radio it will keep it from sharting and not damage the radio more or start a fire!

I winced as you plugged in and turned on those radios. Not a great thing to do without taking a look at the chassis for any visually apparent component damage and not controlling the AC line current as the unit warms up.

Also hubs says the Hallicrafter S-38 behind the little one you were tuning into could be worth about 150 if it is early (it will not a 38 A or B, just a S-38. ) Good Luck!

Hi ALex & Melissa, wow you sure got you another get haul of fantastic items. As for as the June’s Journey game goes. That is my favorite type of game. I got hooked of them as a kid. The 1st time I can remember going to the eye doctors office with my older sisters. They are 6 & 8 yrs older than myself. I also had to get glasses by the time I was 6. Anyway they always had the book called Highlights. In that book there is always a page with hidden pictures. Growing up we didn’t have any money to get anything except necessities. So I loved having to go there. Just so that I could look for the pictures in that book. We are talking many moons ago, I was born in 1965. Anyway I loved hearing that you also enjoy those types of games. Have a wonderful day.

We bought our son the TRS 80 in early 1980s😀😀😀. It came with 64 bites that we later upgraded to 86 bites . That was the most memory it would hold😁😁. My husband wouldn’t let us get a printer because he couldn’t imagine what we would ever need one for. We eventually did get one. The paper came fan folded with holes on the outer edges so the printer teeth could feed it. I set up our budget on it - very tedious calculating I must say.

Let Melissa have the white ice skates. Buy some jingle bells and loop with lace near toe. Buy white or burgundy fuzzy socks. Insert the socks in the skates and fold the top of the socks over the top of the skates. Insert fresh greens/ berries inside the socks. This makes a great Xmas decoration. I hang mine over my porch light.
