National TR-475U pop up TV radio

Perfect for a 1970s camping trip. And that thumbnail probably killed all the suspense of seeing if it worked didn't it? Next time I should have a deceptive thumbnail that shows something that's broken as working or one that suggests that an explosion occurs.
Strangely while I always expect things to explode when I plug them in I haven't had anything actually explode, well I did have a valve arc in a flash of blue light once when I plugged an old radio in. After recapping it worked fine, even with the valve that had arced. Then there's that time I plugged in an electric lead with the ends of the wires bared and pushed the active and neutral together to see what would happen...
