[Motorola] awful radios

I vote for the portable GE produced shortly after the TPL.  I don't recall 
the
model or name, but it was the size and shape of a small book, weighed a ton
with batteries and the receiver sensivity was about 10 dB below a crystal 
set.
As I recall, it was blue/gray in color.  After working on many of them, I
decided its best application was as a weight to hold the lid on a trash can.

My vote would be for the GE TPL or Pacer.
