Throw in all the Audio equipment that has to be kept in a bedroom (my office)L. 8 portable self contained PA speakers, road case containing mixer and two 4 channel wireless mic receivers. Throw in a large bin containing cables, mics, other paraphernalia. 4 speaker stands, 8 mic stands under the bed of the other bedroom.
Of the 80 radios, 35 were either from childhood or street finds. The rest were from eBay. All of the stereo equipment except for the KLH and all of the TVs were either "gifts" from family, friends and neighbors, or street finds, including the 2 Fishers (400 and 800). Yes, Ms. Fixer does put up with a lot but it keeps me off the street and out of trouble.
The vast majority of the radios work and were repaired by me. The TVs will take more time.
