Were they called something like a Picnic radio - when you fitted it to the car bracket it connected a speaker in the car and saved the battery, but when you pulled it out to use outside it works as a stand alone unit?

Why you culdn't just leave the door open when you were having a picnic, I can't imagine? :D

Bought one of these on ebay last year and my mate got it working. As it only gets MW & LW all the stations seem to play nothing but old music. I managed to convince my girlfriend it was actually picking up radio signals that had been bouncing round since the sixties!
