Found it at a flea market and couldn't pass it up. My guess is that it dates from the late 60's (it is made in Hong Kong). This would have mounted on the handle bars of your bike allowing you to tune into your favorite radio station while riding. <br /> The opposite end of the radio is a headlight (see next pic). The on/off switch for that is between the volume and tuning knobs. The black button on the left is for the horn. <br /> Everything still functions well on this unit, just like it was brand new. <br /> How many of you had one of these growing up?</p> Sun, 27 Jul 2008 13:32:02 -0700 2004-01-03T16:49:11-08:00 nobody@flickr.com (TRANSISTOR RADIOS) tag:flickr.com,2004:/photo/2707138761 NPC Bike radio <p>I know very little about this one.
