Glad you like it. I've been trying to do one "creative" video a year. Something that stretches my ability. This one may have been, "A Bridge to Far!" 🤣
Before you purchase, compare with the RF75A. They both have different features but have to say, if you want one that's more useful in an emergency, this is it. I too heard "a crummy commercial" in my head as I was putting this one together. 😂
@@retroCombs Emergency use was my thinking. I have another radio with a crank-handle in the cabinet for use during hurricane power outages... and this looks like an upgrade to that. Also, never hurts to have a spare.
@3vi1J I agree. We have radios all around the house. This one is a nice supplement. We had a 4 hour power outage last week and these little radios were great.
That seems like a great radio. It's just a pity it doesn't accept common, removable batteries, too, and it's a pity we don't have NOA channels in Australia.
I actually tried to pull this one apart for the video, but it proved a bit too tricky so decided against it. Might try again later but yes, this is not an easily replaced battery.
It has its issues. I'm considering a follow-up that describes some things I'd like to see. Not in this style mind you. This short 8-minutes took FOREVER but I had a blast, and learned a lot, working with AI on the commercial images.
HOOKED SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE VIDEO! DA
Glad you liked it. A bit different than my regular vidoes.
Nicely done, taking retro reviews to the next level ;-)

GREAT VIDEO AND GOD BLESS You.
Ya liked it so much, you commented three times! Love it.
@@retroCombs I did.
I wanted to make a Christmas Story "A crummy commercial?!?" joke... but I ended up liking it so much I've thrown one in my Amazon cart. :) Thanks!

How hard was it to keep up that old style speech pattern?
Twern't easy! Luckily I was able to do it all in one sitting. If I stopped and came back to it, I'm sure it would have sounded different.
Victory Vittles!
Get yours now!
@@retroCombs Pretty fun stuff and that seems like a neat little radio to have around.
Pretty handy.
