I’m pretty sure it wouldn’t be possible in my country as all the radio stations switched to digital and phased out analog.

This thing would be great at picking up cosmic microwave background by that’s about it.

Pull out the button set a channel and push it in, it’s possible that they need to be lowest to highest frequency, but that could just be the only way we ever did it lol

I vaguely recall pushing in two buttons at once to get them both to pop out, but maybe that was something else.

I used to have to replace a rubber belt in my cassette player every 6 to 8 months towards the end of my first car. Now I could probably figure it out but there’s a good chance I’d fuck it up a few times first. Time can be a harsh mistress.

Kids don’t even use radio. They don’t know what stations even are. Mine don’t even know what live TV is.

Of course I can program it. I have no idea how to do so right now, but if you gave it to me I could fiddle with it for a few minutes and figure it out.
