'''Radios''' are miscellaneous items that appear in the ''Portal'' series, and appear as simple analogue AM/FM radios. Radios are introduced at the very beginning of [[Portal]], and also make a brief appearance in [[Portal 2]]. When Radios are encountered, they are usually switched on and play an up-tempo version of the tune from the end of Portal {{spoiler text|("[[Portal soundtrack#7. Still Alive - 2:56|Still Alive]]")}}. | '''Radios''' are miscellaneous items that appear in the ''Portal'' series, and appear as simple analogue AM/FM radios.

The Radios in Portal did not originally serve any obvious purpose, and appeared to be present merely in order to provide ambiance. The [[March 1, 2010 Patch (Portal)|March 1, | The Radios in Portal did not originally serve any obvious purpose, and appeared to be present merely in order to provide ambiance. The [[March 1, 2010 Patch (Portal)|March 1, 2010]] patch however, added 26 additional Radios to the game, most of which were hidden in Test Chambers, and also added a new [[Achievements|achievement]], "Transmission Received". This patch, its accompanying achievement and patch notes were later revealed to be part of the [[Portal ARG]]. Among other things, the patch altered the Radios so that they would emit a {{W|Morse Code}}-like signal when placed in certain locations within a test chamber, and locating all 26 of these areas was required in order to unlock the achievement. | ||
Radios do not play a large role in Portal 2, and appear only once in Chapter 2. | Radios do not play a large role in Portal 2, and appear only once in Chapter 2. |
