Is this the unit with the nifty collapsible antenna, two shafts
extending upward and two more flattened out horizontally in a 'T' of
sorts? I have a bright yellow one with red top, nice condition but
only the radio itself: no battery or cable. Has a chromed sliding lock
on the side for the push buttons. About the size of a healthy brick.
