- 📻 Who remembers taking a transistor radio to the beach, park or ballgame during those "lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer?" "Time Rewind" Host and Executive Producer David Mendel gives us a guided tour of his transistor radio collection, featuring gems like the iconic 7Up can and Sunoco gas pump radios, and vestiges of the Cold War.

I'm a ham radio operator. Conelrad had a system that was connected to your transmitter. When the station on 640 or 1240 sent out a tone, your transmitter would shut down, turn off the power. The purpose was for all radio transmitters to be shut down, so the Soviet bombers could not follow your transmitted signal aiding their flights into North America..
Fascinating! Thank you for sharing.
