The Indian who owns the most radios in the world | BBC News India

[Nikhil]

Ram Singh Bodh, known as the "Radio Man of India," has spent his life collecting and preserving radios. As TVs and digital media took over, he kept the love for radios alive. He holds a Guinness World Record for owning the largest collection of unique radios, with 1,257 in total, officially counted in February 2024. His collection includes radios from as early as 1920 to 2010, including rare ones like a Marconi model designed by radio pioneer Guglielmo Marconi.

Thanks for sharing this @Nikhil . Great to see such efforts from Ram Singh.
There is one in SW Radio Museum which is in my bucket list to visit. It's by @udaykalburgi.

With this massive collection, in US or Europe one would have made a really fancy museum with proper display, entry tickets etc. But here nobody bothers. After him, in all probability, his family will get rid of this “junk” by selling them at throwaway prices.

Most probably. Sad.
