[TenTec] Power Mite Odyssey

[Bill Fuqua]

I have always wanted one of these BC receivers because the on I used was 
given to me by my father.
And that was the first Stewart Warner radio I had ever had. I'd have to 
repaint it. The varsity series was  for college students. They were painted 
in the university colors. I'd settle for a non working one in sad shape.
