FWIW - The first Radio that I bought with my own money
for myself was a Hitachi AM/FM Radio Model TH-812.
[ The Grand-Daddy of All My Radios ]
* Back in the early 1960s I managed to receive "WBZ" in
Boston using this Hitachi TH-812 (TRF AM/MW Portable
Radio) with an outboard 'inductively coupled' Tunable Ferrite
Rod Antenna Feed by a 65 Foot Random Wire Antenna.

NOTE: This took me Two Winter Seasons to Log
this Cross Country DX Catch in Oakland, CA.

The first Radio that I make {assembled} for myself was a
HeathKit GR-64 {4-Tube} Shortwave Listener's (SWL) Radio

That was followed by building a HeathKit GC-1A
"Mohican" {Transistorized} General Coverage Receiver
