  This museum was created as an act of love by individuals who spent their life with radios/TVs and many from the industries and there are so many designs on display that it is almost overwhelming. Drive a must. 10 minutes from downtown.

  Our group of five were given a tour of this museum. The displays of radios, televisions, telegraphs, and an impressive collection of other gadgets. One can tell that this museum was created and is kept in operation by dedicated people who know the collection and what it means to have such a collection.

  This is a treasure everyone should check out at least once! We were greeted at the entrance by a couple of wonderful gentlemen and that was just the beginning of probably the best couple hours of information and entertainment we had the pleasure of partaking in for a while. The museum is open Friday, Saturday and Sunday, be sure to check the hours it is open before you go. When we were there, there was no set entrance fee but as you enjoy the tour there is a donation box that we gladly contributed to.

  I will say upfront that I am a little biased, as my grandfather is a volunteer and helps run the museum. But having that inside information allows me to tell you honestly that the organizers behind the museum put their hearts and soul into it.All of the volunteers that keep the museum up give it constant attention, and genuinely love providing tours. You should know that if you have a large group, you can call ahead and they will organize all the volunteers to make sure they can handle providing fun & information to everyone involved. School trips, church groups, senior tours, it's for everybody!Even though I've been here about a zillion times, I always see something new and interesting and always have a good time learning about radio, TV and all kinds of technology from the past. Their computer room is kind of mind blowing too.

  We had an awesome time at this museum today. Sure we were the only one there, so the personal tour was wonderful. It is full of different electronics from all over world. The tour took about hour and half. Please don't pass up this museum. The museum stays open on donations and grants so please help them. So make sure you have some cash on you. Thanks for reading my review.

  This was a small place but it was crammed full of all kinds of electronics. Some of the stuff was very old but still worked. The man who showed us around was very nice and gave us lots of information.

  Museum open only on weekends, plan accordingly. Donations are accepted, no admission charged.Volunteers are a wealth of information. Lots of historical items to see.Located a bit off the beaten path in an old school.

  We visited this museum on our way to Myrtle Beach. We ended up spending about 2 hours looking at all the wonderful old radios and televisions on display. The volunteers at this museum have done an excellent job of converting and old school into a museum of antique electronic technology. They have on display everything on display from the 20 to the present. If you are interested in electronics and the history of same, then this is a place that you should definitely stop at. There is no cost, but donations are graciously accepted, and you can tell that the volunteers are very proud of their place. Additionally they have a working amateur radio station at the facility. This is a place you should visit to see how technology has advanced in a very short time

  The MRT is a genuine treasure. One of those out of the way places where a visit surprises and delights. THIS is why you get off the interstate.They have EVERYTHING. And the staff consists of retired engineers, hams and enthusiasts who actually KNOW the collection and what it means.And the staff will DEMONSTRATE the equipment too. Want to hear what an Edison cylinder player sounds like, no problem, let's crank it up and listen.Not just for geeks, even my wife, the artist, loved the museum.
