A shortwave radio from the late 1940's. It depends on vacuum tubes that are of course no longer available, but I did a test run on it about ten years ago and it worked fine. The problem was that hardly anyone other than hobbyists are fooling with shortwave anymore.
According to ancient relatives, "back in the day" you could routinely hear Radio Moscow broadcasts talking about capitalist running dog lackeys and such.
