Although eventually of course radios did come in. There's an old joke
about three gangsters sitting around shooting the bull. The first guy
brags 'My Ford can go 120 miles-per-hour!' 'Aw, that's nuthin'!' retorts
the second thug. 'My Chevy goes 130!' 'W-e-l-l-l-l yeah,' wisecracks
the third one, the joker of the group. 'But now the cops got those
Motorolas that go 186,000 miles-per-second!'

cheers,

Henry
