6:46 AM 		I was directed to your site through the local vintage radio club in Pittsburgh. I am looking for an old pocket transistor radio, a Channel Master 6506 (preferably red, but will take black) to give my dad as a fathers wedding present. I'd love to find a perfect condition piece, but I know I can't be too picky.

If anyone has one or a lead on one, please let me know.

6:34 PM 		Well, it's red, and comes with all the accessories/box etc. Other than a small chip (which can be filled) I'd say this is what you're looking for.
