Don't see many Baird transistor radios about because they were only made from 1962 to 1965. Found this one in a garden shed in Newton-le-Willows with an incorrect 6volt battery fitted. When I say fitted I mean the battery leads were taped to the battery terminals, however it does work well on MW and only just on LW.
