Visit to the museum is a walk back in time. It was a such a good place for me that I became a member of the museum and a volunteer. I'm sure you will enjoy your time at the museum. Update 3/18/2021. This is to correct my one star review. I accidentally hit the wrong button. The Asheville Radio Museum is 5 stars. Also thanks to Andrew who noticing my mistake.
We stopped by the Asheville Radio Museum this past weekend during a trip to Asheville. A fantastic place to visit for any radio or electronics enthusiast, it is packed floor to ceiling the many old tube radios - some you will not likely see anywhere else. Plus a few newer models also. Great for kids, as the curator Stuart explains the basics of radio waves, resonance, and can demonstrate how lightning affects radio signals, how Morse code works, and much more.
An exceptional walk thorough the history of radio. If you have any memories of the time before today's communication links (or would like to imagine it) this is the place to spend a few hours. It is truly a labor of love for those who have taken on the responsibility of preserving this history.
This is well worth a visit no matter your interest in technology or history or just plain how stuff works. Well presented and Stuart was a great host. I will do this again soon.
This is quite a museum for anyone interested in a hands-on presentation of radio history, both broadcast and amateur. The breadth of equipment is impressive and in excellent condition. Even if you're not a real radio equipment fan, you'll find it fascinating. Worth the visit!
