Every part,open to read.
A 1969 shape around a 2027 board: the drawings, the materials, the radio and the battery, with nothing hidden behind a spec sheet.
Built like 1969.Wired like 2027.
Nine parts, made to be opened with one screwdriver. Real glass in front, a software radio behind it.
Every millimetre,on the record.
