I wore that radio out from 75 through 81. Risked waking up my parents when
they'd be on the west coast. A few years back while driving home, I found a YouTube video from May 21, 1975 (I think), and listened to it while driving up I-81. So cool to hear Marty and Joe. And the Reds won, too! Thank goodness for Bluetooth and smart phones.
