Kennedy Universal used "portable" circa 1923. Also note the Magnavox amplifier on the running board and Magnavox R-3 horn speaker on the Kennedy along with the earphone sets hanging from the car's top and the loop antenna on the hood. A real first-class portable receiving station. Photo from the Henry Ford Museum and Science&Invention Magazine

Hence my signature.

Radio is the original wireless communication.

If Armageddon ever does come as promised, us sinners with crappy old radios will be the rulers of the underworld because all of the other crap will be dead and useless.

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
