    People in the Northeast think they listen to their favorite radio stations on a tuna.

    I really wanted to raise Redclaw Crayfish but after experimenting with how much heat would be needed I went with the swamp crayfish. Can raise them without heat. I can also save on lights. Crawdads don't need light. I can run a lot of tanks of a central air system and sponge filters. Power filters take 25 watts each. A 25 watt air pump can run at least 4 tanks. My cement ponds are also ready. I have about 7000 gallons of water outside. And a few tanks in my man cave.

    A Tuner is an electronic radio only.It requires a power amplifier.
    Just like a Stereo Receiver is comprised of a Power amplifier,a Radio or
    Tuner and a Pre-amplifier.A Pre-amplifer has the controls.
    Like volumn,balance,and source.
    An Integrated Amplifier is a Stereo w/o the Tuner.
    Most Integrated Amps have a Phono output for playing records
    and a CD Drive.
    I bought a nifty *Transistor radio at Wal*Mart last spring that was
    $ 17.99. I wanted to compare it to the $ 99.99 HD Transistor Pocket
    radio from Hammacher Schlemmer.The difference was not noticeable to
    justify the price difference.Plus Hammacher Schlemmer does not offer
    free shipping on anything.Plus their N.Y. Tax.
    However I would always recommend Hammacher Schlemmer for
    a myriad of reasons..Very professional ordering process over the phone.
    open 24/7 by phone and ordering.Their Catalogs come every month.
    They have very unique products and back them up with testing
    before putting them in their catalog.
    However for Stereo equipment or LP's I highly recommend
    Music Direct in Chicago.They have Free Shipping if over $ 49.
    Used to be Free of sales tax until that got changed.


    * A Sony Transistor radio.Lightweight and what transistor radio's
    look and felt like back in the day { 60's }.

    We had an Italian neighbor that referred to pizza never as pizza it was always pie. When he asked if you wanted pie it was always pizza.

    So sorry to hear about your buddy that is sad.
    A few years ago we drove over to La. and picked up crawfish for a boil. The guy we bought them from told us to never season them till after they were boiled. Put them in a cooler lined with tinfoil, put the seasoning over them cover them and let them sit for a while. We did it and it worked great.

    How would you separate this pie, from dat pie? Besides with a knife and a pepper flake jar....

    I actually had to look up the 'Ah beetz' reference. Knowing the show, they did a little productive (in contrast to literary) liberty between states. Have I mentioned that in the opening credits, you get a good tour of my home town? Mountain Avenue was the residential 'main drag'.
