Old School Clock Radio - GE Clock Radio 7-4620D

Sometimes if you want something to work well, you have to do it the old school way.  Last weekend, I found the perfect clock radio.  If you've ever been confused and befuddled by the myriad of buttons on a modern alarm clock, you'll love this radio. It's a GE Clock Radio Model 7-4620D.  It has an LED time display and very simple controls. I suspect it was made in the late 70s or early 80s.  Here it is on the nightstand among my alarm clocks.

It looks simple and it is simple.  The controls on top of this GE clock are super easy to understand.

 
But, it also has a few old school features.  For example, it has a heavy old school speaker that puts out some decent sound and more importantly some loud sound.  You can tune the radio and control the volume here.

 

As long as the power doesn't go out, you won't sleep through anything with this clock radio.  Plus, you won't find teak grain finish on polystyrene like this anywhere!  

If you gotta go with more modern technology inside, here you go . . .but my clock radio was only $5.
