 Topic: Was it worth it???
Posted: 20 May 2010 at 10:19pm |
It was a cold windy day here today, so I decided to go get the radio I bought about a month ago....250 miles in my Suzuki Sidekick...with no cruise! Radio was included with the purchase of a new Gleaner in 1976, owner wanted to hear the combine, not the radio so he never installed it. He said he almost threw it in the trash, but his wife decided to put it on craigslist.
Cats seemed to like it.....and the box it came in LOL

Looks sweet. Better watch out, Fred might be after it! I know what the man meant, I refuse to have a radio in a combine, you cant hear whats going on.

Nice find Eldon. Are you gonna mount it on your bush hog tractor so you can blow the speaker out trying to hear the radio? LOL

Charlie I have upgraded to a "Worktunes" headphone radio to save my hearing....but I'm tempted to hook this one up to a battery just to hear the old familiar crackle of an AM radio right before a storm moves in.....

I do not know about ol' Fred, but everytime I find a new implement, it sure seems like a good reason to get another tractor. now.... about that plow I bought yesterday..... LOL
