    Retro Bluetooth speaker

    Anyone out there taking a Blaupunkt Derby or other picnic radio and converting to a Bluetooth speaker unit?

    That's a great idea, Frank. I've got a couple of Derby units and neither works. Maybe just swap the guts for newfangled?

    Nice Russ. You even have pamphlets.

    I would much rather carry my Derby around than my Bose Soundlink lll.


    This would be very amusing. Full circle; we'll still be carrying around our transistor radios.

    Relive the 60's/70's and have our playlist.

    Why not just use a Zenith Trans Oceanic? It has a speaker built in?
    Mine was stolen while taking a shower at a school named Judson. Maybe its still in some Scottsdale pawnshop.
