Leo's Turn The Table Turkey of the week!

This week Leo steps out from behind his desk and goes into the "old radio studio" part of the new Brick TWiT House for his pick of the week.

You won't be running out to buy one of these gadgets because it's more than 50 years old and probably cost $15,000 to $20,000 to buy back then. Leo's the proud owner of a Collins AM Radio Transmitter, model 20V. It's been restored and brought back to like new condition. And yes, it works! You don't need to know anything about it to fall in love with this device. Just look at those tubes that glow with excitment when they heat up! I really don't anything about the Collins AM Radio Transmitter except this. For a piece of equipment the size of a phone booth, that's 50 years+ old, a lot of people are still interested in it. There's a ton of info about it on the web! Be sure to watch this episode of the Weekly Daily Giz Wiz to see this high tech gizmo of years gone by in HD. You can tell Leo just loves having it in the studio! And here's a bit more info on the Collins AM Radio Transmitter via a web search:
