Worst Classic Radio

[Sandbagger]

Here's a reciprocal question related to the earlier question about which classic you'd choose if you could only have one. This time, I'd like to know what radio you've run which was the absolute worst radio ever. Poor feature set, lousy performance, Poor reliability, or whatever other criteria.

I have to really think about this, as there were literally a ton of "one-hung-low" off brands of CB radios in the heyday of the 70's. There was one that sticks in my mind by the name of "Skyfon". A real bottom of the barrel radio......

Morse CB-2000 23 channel mobile. That radio could get co-channeled all the way around the band from 20 miles away.

In the mid 70's GM Delco had that AM/FM/CB radio, those were garbage. Some of the Cybernet chassied radios were pretty bad,, too.

Other than that, I've never really owned a bad radio, unless I'm blocking some bad memories... ;D
