Hey~

So yesterday I was at an antique shop and came across this radio:

I have been shopping around for just a new alarm clock in general and I happen to be a huge fan of vintage funky stuff and when I saw this I started gettin’ excited.

I had the lady pull it out and I looked it over, it seemed to be in 100% mint condition, no scratches or marks on it at all… that was all good… Then we plugged it in and gave it a minute to warm up, and on popped the radio and clock working at full speed in perfect condition…

Since I figured it at least worked and the alarm went off when we played around with it that I would go ahead and get if and if i didn’t like it I’d just give it to a friend or something… Funny, this morning i set 2 alarm clocks and this one went off and the other one (that is newer) never went off lol…

I am wondering if anyone knows the model or year that this came out? I’ve looked here online and can’t seem to find anything similar to it… the only thing I know about is the following:

Its a tube amp
it says Motorola on the front.

not a whole lot to go on, but i figured for $35 I’d probably be okay…

but does anyone remember these or know what year they might have come from?

Thanks
sorry didn’t get back, i’m not quite sure how all this works as this is the first time i’ve ever asked something on here lol…

I haven’t yet taken off any back panels because I don’t know what i’m doing so i’ve been waiting for my dad to get home.

I had seen that radio earlier today and it was the only one I could find but being it was at a set buy it now price and is in horrible condition i didn’t know exactly what to go off… lol.

Why is it that any alarm clock I buy will ring (briefly) in the middle of the night?

Richard J asked:


I’ve bought half a dozen or more alarm clocks in the last 4 years or so — both analog and digital. All of them work fine almost all the time; but every one of them, once set, will occasionally ring (very briefly) in the middle of the night. Another 20, 30, or 40 days might go by before I’ll encounter the same disturbing behavior.

What can I do to get an alarm clock that won’t intrude into my sleep uninvited?

I have been recently ignoring my alarm clock!! Whether it’s on buzzer or radio I somehow just incorporate the noise into my dreams. Does anyone have any suggestions to getting woke up in the morning?

SueZQ asked:


I’m the person who hits the snooze button repeatedly. Sometimes I don’t even know I am hitting it, and then I end up being late. Is there an alarm clock out there that won’t let me oversleep?

Ryan asked:

I want an alarm clock that can play a song of my choice to wake me up in the morning. It would help if I could choose from off iTunes or from off my iPod.
