I'm not a mind reader, but we can't figure it out unless you share some details or at least a photo?

Good Morning All, It is an old 27 mHz marine radio. It has been rebadged as O'Donnell Griffin (ODG) It was also marketed under Weston and GME. Parts became obsolete in the mid 80s so yes it is a boat anchor. Regards

Ok thanks, I don't think anyone is using the old 27 meg up here, but oh well it was only $2 anyway.

It's an old 27 meg marine radio. 27meg CB is at the other end of the 11 metre band.

2 bucks sounds like a really good deal. Does anyone know if these things have a collectors market potential or something like that? I'm just curious.
