[Boatanchors] Northern Radio FWIW

[Bill Henderson]

I have one of their two band Baby Champ models (restored) and have had a
few of various types in the line in the past.

I had a Northern Electric "Midge" - often called "Midget" as the radio in
my room when I was much much younger.

I have serviced many of their televisions in the past as well.
