All right, let's calm down and think rationally...

Cerver, you obviously went to a lot of trouble to convert your grandparents' 42-380 into a computer. And I am sure you are proud of your accomplishment. After all, it is yours and you certainly have the right to do with it what you will.

But to call Arran a "noob" because he feels you should have preserved the radio is way out of line, pal.

Arran happens to be a very knowledgeable vintage radio collector and is hardly a "noob."

This is a vintage radio forum, not a computer forum. Please try to keep this in mind. Thank you.

P.S. So what did you do with that "crappy old AM radio" chassis and speaker? I hope you did not just throw it away. Someone could have used it for parts...
