RE: Golden Oldie - London - Paris - Hamburg

That's a really cool looking radio. I always enjoy vintage equipment like that. Are used to be a guitar player so it probably comes naturally. Guitar players usually love vintage gear. Anyway, the location and frequency number associations are very interesting. I never would have thought it would be organized that way. It makes a lot of sense though

Sort:  

It's so cool and super interesting @steemseph. The locations are a feature that stood out to me as well, such as the Paris II area, where is that region?

Lol "Paris II" is funny. Sounds like Paris from another planet or in the catacombs. Probably not much of a radio signal in the catacombs though.
I'm sorry to ruin the party, but I just thought of something potentially hazardous. Sometimes the old soldering has lead inside of it. They stopped allowing lead in solder because it becomes a pollutant at landfills and leaches into the ground. I have a really old Fender Rhodes piano and I can smell it. It smells specifically like old electronic equipment. I don't think it's a good idea to be locked or sealed inside of a small room with such devices. Could be a source of minor lead poisoning. Make sure you eat all your cilantro. 🙏🎃🙏

Yeah, I should do a little bit of research about the Paris II enigma @steemseph. Thanks so much for the heads up with the hazardous materials, I'd never thought of that that, I'll handle with caution in the future. I have to be honest, I'd never heard of cilantro before, so I Googled it and found out that it's also called coriander, so don't worry, I have plenty of that in my diet. :-D

I would guess that the "Paris II" is an extra station for either the north or south side. My other best guess is that the station "Brussels" was for vegetables. (Jk)
I thought, coriander was the seed/kitchen spice version of Cilantro. I don't know if it has the same blood purifying properties. I'm sure your fine... both are yummy. Some ppl are allergic to it, so be careful. Maybe cilantro is more specific to Mexican/Los Angels culture than I realized.
Paris II = Middle Earth 👀
