For all the glory of the consoles, they do tend to eat up a lot of space. It's nice, therefore, to see the compact designs of a lot of the table models. Even though there is still some dead space in a lot of them, compressing the innards of a console into a space 1/3 the volume is still something of a feat. (Smaller sets are also a LOT easier to force into the Honda.) On this page, I am going to focus on the horizontal table radios. The second radio I ever bought was one of these.
