I barely remember the cartoon and didn't remember the cat's name. I wanted to share that article to show what a job the author did on a totally trashed radio.
I had one radio (a Coronado farm set) where the oscillator coil was chewed on but no nest, poop, urine, hair, dead mice, etc. I guess that they ate and ran out on the bill.
I also have the Westinghouse RC, a Westinghouse Aeriola Sr (early model, wood panel, no RCA logos on instruction label), a Radiola II, FADA 160 and a unknown 3 tube regenerative radio kit, all 100 years old. My A-K 10 is likely 1924 as it has the breadboard for a Pooley cabinet, but is otherwise identical to an AK10C. That one has the BBTs to be cool, as they are visible, although, technically, they should be tiples UV style Cunninghams. So next year, my A-K10, AK20 Big Box, and Radiola 3 turn 100 (possibly, as these were sold over 2 or more years).
