It's not to my taste but I love it!
I sometimes dream about going to one of those steampunk occasions in Edwardian clothing with a fully working valve radio with exposed valves. It's something which would not be too hard but obviously there are is safety to bear in mind - lower voltage and efficient aerial - it would have to be am, but just requires the determination to do it. Having recently bought an Edwardian blouse as a treat I would point out that the clothing may well be more expensive to finalise than the radio. I wonder how Radio Caroline would be with steampunk
I do agree with no converting AVO's but I was in two minds earlier in the week when I saw a program in which an old radio was converted. It's not something which would affect me too much as I have few of them, but I have noticed some people on vintage forums do scrap things if they are not able to sell or easily give them away. The question is - Is it better to scrap a lesser quality vintage radio or torture it and enthusiasts by transforming it to some modern design?
