Hey, you have to keep in mind it was $18.75 radio. It is a miracle it worked at all.
It was in essence "bait'n'switch" thing: come look at our "under $20" set and maybe you will like out $80 one instead.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
