Motorola model 56L1 portable - This radio was my grandfather's.  

RCA Television 9-T-246 - This was my parent's first television.  It was stored in an attic off of my bedroom when I was growing up.  Sometimes I would sneak in there with an extension cord and watch cartoons on Saturday morning!

This television receives VHF channels 2 - 13 only. In order to receive UHF channels, a UHF convertor is needed.
On top of the TV is a RCA model U40 UHF convertor.   This is a top-of-the-line 4 tube model.

Bonder/Tongue Labs BTL99 UHF convertor.   This is an inexpensive 1 tube model.
