    I bet there’s a bad tube or loose connection now.

    Trying moving to a different part of the country or world, Charlie Brown, and maybe you’ll find a good radio program.

    Try writing your local radio station and complain. When this strip came out that might actually have worked. Today…. don’t bother. The local station is probably owned by someone out of Boston, or NYC, or Chicago, or LA, or Atlanta, or New Orleans, or just about any major metropolitan city where they don’t care what the people where you are want to listen to.

    I am so sick of hearing Led Zeppelin that I could cry, and I used to like them. Thanks, packaged radio.

    These days even specialty programmes are pre-programmed on disc. If it’s an evening slot, there’s probably no one in the studio at all.

    Now in Summer months TV doesn’t have good programs.

    I wonder what tubes in a radio conger up to a 10 year old today.

    Yeah, corp-radio sucks….thank goodness for the community radio (3 choices!) in my neck o’ the woods. Not always my cup of tea, but at least it’s local…..’bout half the time, I know the deejay!

    Just turn your dial to 91.9 FM and slowly scan down toward 88.1. That’s the part of the FM spectrum that’s reserved for non-commercial stations…if you can get past all the NPR and religious channels who’ve started hogging the noncom airwaves, you’ve got a chance at hearing music you’ve never heard before played by people who don’t earn a living as DJs. I’ve been a DJ at both commercial and noncom stations. The money’s in commercial but the fun and creativity is at the noncom end.

    Radio tubes. Memories. They all had a 35W4, 50C5, 12BA6, 12BE6, and a 12AV6. I once worked on a deluxe 6-tuber that also had a 12AT6. Of course, you had to spray the variable condenser occasionally so you could keep the tuning smooth. I would stick a wire on to the wound interior antenna that was usually inside the removable back panel so I could bring in a few stations.

    Funny how I can remember all of that, but I temporarily don’t remember what I had for supper last night.

    Fortunately for him, unfortunately for us, Charles Schulz didn’t live to witness the age of “Reality TV”

    Compare this CB to the one in todays Classic Peanuts strip. Big difference.

    And in the 64 years since this strip was first published it hasn’t changed. It’s actually gotten worse.

    If Charlie Brown was listening in the afternoon it was in the period of the soap operas. No kid is going to be happy listening to “The Guiding Light,” “John’s Other Family,” “Backstage Wife” or “Ma Perkins.” He wants “The Lone Ranger,” Jack Armstrong, All-American Boy" and “The Adventures of Superman.”

    …and when your radio stopped working, you would go to the drugstore and use the Tube Tester – wow, drugstores actually sold replacement tubes!
