The Vintage Radio and Communications Museum of Connecticut

Ideas born from a place of passion have an undeniable life about them, and you can feel it when you are in their presence. The Vintage Radio and Communications Museum of Connecticut, located in a ubiquitous brick building, in Windsor, Connecticut, is one of those places.

As part of Music Appreciation Week, we thought it would be a good idea to visit the museum, which is chock-full of radios, record players, TVs, and tape recorders, not to mention the massive transmitters that send the radio waves out over the airwaves. In a nutshell, the museum is chock-full of the sound and music cabinets and living room consoles our parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents used to gather around when they listened to music or took a spin on the dance floor.

Founded and maintained entirely by volunteer radio buffs more than 30 years ago, the museum is essentially a love song to all forms of communications gear, some dating back prior to Guglielmo Marconi’s invention of the radio, in 1896.
