$75.00 for a GE Superadio.What kind of Hashish are you on?

I just checked the prices of SOLD Superadio II's on eBay and the average price
works out to $89.98.

I have seen them go as high as $175.00 or so.

Like eBay reflects reality.

Any 1960 vintage 5 tube superhet will run circles around a
''Superradio''.

Hardly. The reason folks like the GE radio is that it has a tuned RF
stage to get good reception fed to a decent speaker so you get decent
sound. The 6 D cell batteries last days not hours a a sound level
that is usefull in a decent sized room. That's assuming you can't use
the power cord. The 5 tube superhet's were no better if as good for
reception but forget battery life. Most did not do FM.
