    Thanks, for sharing this, Peter! Never heard of the Freed brand. That
    video gives a special meaning to "handcrafted". Typical factory floor
    of that period - lots of ways to get injured if you're not paying very
    close attention. I can just imagine what a radio (or any appliance)
    might cost today if that many folks are needed in its assembly.
    Sincerely, and 73s from N4GGO,
