Radiola Senior
#6

I pulled my Radiola apart today and it might need a little work to get going. One wire is broken and it is that stuff that seems to have wire strands interwoven through the fabric instead of a core of strands like later wire. Also, there is a flat block between the earphone connectors that looks a little crappy with corrosion. Other than those two things, it looks good inside. One oddity, I pulled half of an Aeriola Senior tag that was crumpled in the bottom of the case. Why was that in there? The half that is intact is a help though as it shows how to properly connect the batteries. After taping it back together, I scanned the fragile piece into my computer.

No matter where you go, there you are.
